The revamped Club World Cup aims to attract participants with increased bonuses, but this has caused discontent among Premier League clubs, particularly regarding Manchester City and Chelsea’s involvement.
Details: According to Daily Mail, City and Chelsea could each receive between £50-60 million in bonuses, potentially improving their standing under Premier League financial regulations. Other league clubs see this as an unfair advantage, especially since Manchester City is already under investigation for alleged breaches of financial fair play rules in the Premier League.
Reminder: FIFA can offer such substantial bonuses thanks to a deal with DAZN, the tournament’s official broadcaster, which secured the rights for €1 billion.
