The Premier League is well-known by football fans as one of the most competitive and difficult leagues. This is due to the abundance of star players in the Premier League, and each club has a substantial budget in each transfer window. It's no surprise, then, that Premier League clubs consistently excel over their competitors. While Premier League clubs don't achieve impressive results in Europe and the world every season, they consistently dominate.
In fact, in the last five Club World Cups, three Premier League champions have come from the Premier League: Chelsea twice and Manchester City once.
The last five Club World Cups have indeed been won mostly by Premier League teams. However, prior to that, Real Madrid, the holder of the most Club World Cups, had always won them. They have won five Club World Cups: in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2022.In fact, in the last five Club World Cups, three Premier League champions have come from the Premier League: Chelsea twice and Manchester City once.
The second-most successful club is Barcelona, with three Club World Cup titles: in 2009, 2011, and 2015.
The clubs that have won the Club World Cup twice are Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and Corinthians.
However, in terms of squad quality, depth, and the intensity of competition, I agree that the Premier League is more intense.
But I was surprised to see Al-Hilal reach the final. I forgot about that year, or maybe I missed it.
