Four clubs have already qualified for the next Club World Cup ahead of this year's final between Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.

PSG beat Real Madrid 4-0 to book their spot in Sunday's final at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Last season's Champions League winners ran riot on Wednesday, scoring three answered goals in the first-half before adding a fourth three minutes from time.

PSG will be without two keys players for the Club World Cup final against Chelsea, who beat Fluminense in Tuesday's semi-final.

With the showpiece event just days away, four clubs have already secured their place for the next Club World Cup.

The revamped competition returns in the summer of 2029, with a host country yet to be announced.

The host will be given one slot for the 2029 Club World Cup.

They will be joined by PSG on the basis of winning the 2024/25 Champions League.

Mexican side Cruz Azul, who won the 2025 CONCACAF Champions Cup, will also be at the next Club World Cup.

Pyramids and Al Ahli have claimed their spots at the 2029 Club World Cup, too.

The Egyptian team qualified after winning the 2024/25 CAF Champions League and the Saudi Pro League outfit qualified after winning the 2024/25 AFC Champions League Elite.

The 2029 Club World Cup, which will be made up of 32 teams, will consist of 12 UEFA slots, six CONMEBOL slots, four AFC slots, four CAF slots, four CONCACAF slots, one OFC slot and one slot representing the host nation.

How do teams qualify for the 2029 Club World Cup?

The 12 UEFA slots will be made up of four Champions League winners from the 2024/25 season to the 2027/28 season, with PSG already qualifying after last season's triumph.

The remaining eight slots will be handed out to the best-ranked eligible teams in the UEFA four-year ranking.

CONMEBOL's six slots will be handed out to the next four Copa Libertadores winners and the best-ranked eligible teams in the CONMEBOL four-year ranking.
