FIFA has struggled to sell TV and commercial rights to the Club World Cup .

The 32 -team tournament, which FIFA conceived to reshape club soccer, does not yet have broadcasters or sponsors.

European clubs, according to reports and a source familiar with the situation, want UEFA Champions League -level payouts as compensation for their participation.

The 2025 Club World Cup brings nowhere near the same level of notoriety or economic impact.

FIFA could settle for whatever it can milk out of sponsors and broadcasters.

The tournament should still happen, though, unless players take collective action.

Coaches and players have consistently bemoaned the buildup of matches in recent years .
