How the qualification system works

According to the current regulations, 12 UEFA teams will participate in the Club World Cup:

the four winners of the latest editions of the Champions League

the eight best teams in the UEFA ranking

At the moment, the venue for the 2029 edition has not yet been announced.

Inter's advantage

The leadership of the Nerazzurri reflects the team's European continuity in recent seasons and solidity in the UEFA ranking. A primacy that puts Inter in an advantageous position to secure a spot in the most prestigious global club tournament, also increasing the club's international prestige.

The path of the other Italian teams

For Juventus, Milan, Napoli, and Atalanta, the path to qualification remains complicated. The teams will need to improve their performances in the Champions League and Europa League in the coming seasons to climb the ranking and secure a spot in the World Cup.

In summary, while Inter already dreams of the global stage of 2029, the other Italian teams are called to constant and strategic work to get closer to the top European clubs.
