FIFA Intercontinental Cup

The FIFA Intercontinental Cup is an annual football competition organised by FIFA, the global governing body for the sport. First held in 2024, the tournament features the reigning club champions of each of the six FIFA confederations, contested in a knockout format in which the representative from Europe receives a bye to the final. The tournament concept is closely modelled on the earlier version of the FIFA Club World Cup, which underwent major expansion and restructuring starting with the 2025 edition.

Although the Intercontinental Cup confers the honorary title of annual "world champions", it is secondary in prestige and significance to the expanded Club World Cup. Real Madrid are the current holders, having defeated Pachuca 3–0 in the inaugural final held in 2024.
