Manchester City and Chelsea have discovered their opponents for the newly-formed Club World Cup in 2025.

The tournament has expanded to 32 teams and will now be held in the summer, this edition being staged in the United States in June and July.

City and Chelsea have qualified through lifting the Champions League trophy across the last four years, and Pep Guardiola and Enzo Maresca will each be satisfied with their draw for the group stages.

In Group G, City have been handed a blockbuster tie with Juventus - who they face in the Champions League next week - as well as Wydad AC and Al-Ain of Morocco and the United Arab Emirates respectively.

Guardiola's team are the defending champions after overcoming Fluminense in the final back at the end of 2023.

Chelsea handed favourable draw

Meanwhile, Chelsea have have been provided with what will be deemed to be a favourable draw having been allocated a spot in Group D.

Brazilian giants Flamengo, Mexican side Club Leon and Tunisian outfit Esperance Tunis will be their three opponents.

The West Londoners also overcame Palmeiras in the 2021 final, but they are yet to face African opposition on this stage.

Group A: Palmeiras, Porto, Al Ahly, Inter Miami,

Group B: Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid, Botafogo, Seattle Sounders,
