Today it was reported that Real Madrid is pressuring Gianni Infantino (president of FIFA) to make the Club World Cup take place every 2 years instead of every 4. I think that’s a much better idea, waiting 4 years takes too long and it ends up becoming very tedious. The success of this edition of the tournament was remarkable, and I believe that if more clubs push for this change, FIFA will eventually accept it.

I really think that make this competition every 2 years would be too much: the majority of players from the big club would play non-stop because every single year there would be an international competition: Euro cup - Club World Cup - World Cup - Club World Cup, without forgetting the Copa America and the African Cup. The situation is really getting out of hand.

But I am not sure yet whether the Club World Cup will be held every season or this tournament will be organized with a gap of one year in between. If this tournament is organized with a gap of one year then this tournament will have more attraction but if it is organized every season then clubs and players will not have much attraction towards this tournament. FIFA may have taken the decision of Club World Cup very quickly this season but in the next tournament this Club World Cup will definitely be more attractive and we will see many more new teams participating in this competition, that is our expectation now. Chelsea will remain the defending champion until another tournament starts. The first tournament of Club World Cup was organized in America, where can FIFA organize the next tournament?

I don't see how they can organize the Club World Cup every year, let's take a look at the calendars:

- 2018 World Cup: June 14 - July 15
- 2020 Euro Cup: June 11 - July 11
- 2024 Euro Cup: June 14 - July 14
- 2024 Copa America: June 20 - July 14
- 2025 Club World Cup: June 15 - July 13
- 2026 World Cup: June 11 - July 19

As you can see all these tournaments take place between mid-June until mid-July, so there is no way to play the Club World Cup every year, there are no dates available.
Of course I didn't count Qatar 2022 since it was played during winter, which is an anomaly.
