FIFA considering Confederations Cup return: Report

Germany are the defending champion of the tournament.

FIFA is thinking of reviving the Confederations Cup, which would be an eight-team competition between the continental winners every four years.

It is intended as a battle of champions, also drawing together the top national teams from each confederation for a high-stakes matchup. The new tournament would consist of eight teams and be held every four years.

With Spain joining as the UEFA EURO holders and Argentina representing South America as the current FIFA World Cup champions, the suggested teams are already creating excitement.

Which nations will participate in the new tournament?

With Argentina already qualified, Colombia will take their place as Copa América finalists. Portugal earned their position by winning the UEFA Nations League.

New Zealand (OFC Nations Cup champions), Ivory Coast (AFCON winners), Qatar (AFC Asian Cup champions), and Mexico (CONCACAF Gold Cup winners) are representing the other continents.

By promoting intercontinental rivalries and commemorating continental supremacy, this revitalised Confederations tournament seeks to provide a truly worldwide spectacle.

If approved, it would bring back a competition that was formerly thought of as a prelude to the World Cup and could be a vital platform for evaluating skill, strategy, and international football standards.
