Cristiano Ronaldo Hails Club World Cup as the “Most Valuable” Competition
Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has praised the FIFA Club World Cup, calling it a “fantastic competition” and arguing that it now surpasses all other club tournaments in value — not just for the trophy, but for the massive financial reward tied to it.
🗣️ “The FIFA Club World Cup is a fantastic competition that every club dreams of winning. Especially now, with the recent changes and the increased prize money, it has become even more valuable… In my opinion, the Club World Cup is now more valuable than any other club competition because of the massive prize money involved.”
Ronaldo’s comments come ahead of the revamped 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, set to feature 32 teams and significantly larger financial stakes — a shift many say is reshaping club football’s global landscape. His endorsement reflects growing sentiment that economic rewards are becoming just as important as sporting glory in elite competitions.
