FC Barcelona and the FIFA Club World Cup(2025 Update)

Why Barca isn’t play in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup

The new FIFA Club World Cup will feature 32 qualified teams, including 12 from 🇪🇺Europe—but surprisingly, FC Barcelona is not among them.

As one of the most famous football clubs in the world, Barcelona’s absence comes down to two main reasons:

  • Each country is limited to a maximum of two clubs in the tournament. For Spain, those spots have been taken by Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, both based in Madrid.
  • While Barcelona won La Liga in 2023, the FIFA Club World Cup qualification is based on Champions League results. Unfortunately, Barcelona were eliminated in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League in both 2022 and 2023.

Barca in the FIFA Club World Cup

FC Barcelona has left an indelible mark on the FIFA Club World Cup, lifting the trophy three times.🏆🏆🏆

Their first triumph came in 2009, under the leadership of Pep Guardiola.

That season was historic—not only did Barcelona claim their maiden Club World Cup title, but they also became the first team in history to win the sextuple, capturing all six major trophies available in a single calendar year:

  • La Liga – Clinched the title with three games to spare
  • Copa del Rey – Defeated Athletic Bilbao 4–1 in the final
  • UEFA Champions League – Beat Manchester United 2–0 in the final
  • Spanish Super Cup – Beat Athletic Bilbao 5–1 on aggregate
  • UEFA Super Cup – Defeated Shakhtar Donetsk 1–0 (a.e.t.)
  • FIFA Club World Cup – Overcame Estudiantes (La Plata) 2–1 in the final

Barcelona’s second FIFA Club World Cup title came in 2011, when they returned to the tournament as UCL winners.

The team was orchestrated by their legendary midfield trio—Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, and Sergio Busquets—who dominated possession and dictated the pace of every match.

Their third triumph arrived in 2015, during the golden era of the MSN trio (Messi, Suárez, Neymar).

That season, Barcelona secured their second historic treble, and capped it off by winning the Club World Cup once again, showcasing one of the most fearsome attacking units in modern football history.

Could Barca Qualify for the Next FIFA Club World Cup (2029)?

It’s uncertain. Whether Barcelona can qualify for the next FIFA Club World Cup depends on two keys:

  1. Champions of the UEFA Champions League.
  2. High ranking in UEFA Club Coefficient Ranking.
