Both rival clubs are set to bank a huge bonus for the summer transfer window, giving them an inevitable advantage over Liverpool
Manchester City and Chelsea could be in line for a £60million pay-out through their participation in next summer’s Club World Cup, having been chosen to play in the tournament. Liverpool did not meet FIFA ’s selection criteria. European clubs qualify through UEFA coefficient ranking - determined by how well a club does in Europe over the past four seasons. Winning the Champions League in that period almost guarantees participation.
Liverpool can only qualify for the next edition in 2029 by being within the top two highest ranked English teams with UEFA’s coefficient table by 2028. The formerly annual competition is now being spaced out to once every four years. The tournament, which has brought a lot of controversy, is set to last for 29 days and begins on June 15 with the final being staged on July 13. Games will be played in 12 stadiums across the United States.
