The FIFA Club World Cup crowns the best club side on the planet by pitting the champions of each continent against one another. It began in 2000 with Corinthians lifting the inaugural trophy on home soil in Brazil, went dormant for four years, then returned in 2005 as an annual fixture that ran through 2023.

For most of its history the tournament was a compact, single-host event decided over a week or so, and it became a showcase for European dominance in particular — Real Madrid alone claimed five titles between 2014 and 2022. South American giants and the occasional underdog, like DR Congo's TP Mazembe reaching the 2010 final, added the drama.

In 2025 the competition was reborn in a radically expanded format: 32 clubs across a month-long tournament staged in the United States, a dry run for the following year's World Cup. Chelsea beat Paris Saint-Germain 3–0 in the New Jersey final to become the first champions of the new era. The table below lists every winner, runner-up and host from 2000 through 2025.

Every FIFA Club World Cup Winner (2000–2025) — FAQ

Which club has won the most FIFA Club World Cups?
Real Madrid have won the most FIFA Club World Cups with five titles, claimed in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2022. Barcelona are next with three.
Who won the first expanded 32-team Club World Cup in 2025?
Chelsea won the first 32-team FIFA Club World Cup, beating Paris Saint-Germain 3–0 in the final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on 13 July 2025. It was Chelsea's second Club World Cup title.
Why was there no Club World Cup winner in 2024?
The original annual format ended with Manchester City's win in 2023. FIFA then relaunched the competition as a month-long 32-team tournament, held for the first time in 2025, so no edition was contested in 2024.
Why is there a gap between 2000 and 2005 in the winners list?
After the inaugural 2000 tournament, the competition was suspended amid the collapse of FIFA's marketing partner ISL and a fixture clash with the Intercontinental Cup. It returned in 2005 and ran annually until 2023.
