FM20 - European Conference League and new format Club World Cup

[Matteo3champions]

Goodmorning,

 

Can someone by SI confirm if in FM20 are going to be the new european competition that will start from 21/22, and the new 24-clubs format of the Club world cup that will start from June 2021?

 

Thanks.

SI were quite vague in the live stream but they did say there was a new European competition in FM 20

Very happy to see this included. As for the new Club World Cup though, I'd wager it probably won't. There's two big problems right now. Firstly, a lack of detail - they've outlined the number of teams from each continent, the first host and year, but that's it. We don't have precise dates, we don't know how teams will qualify (this is crucial), we don't know how it will impact other competitions, we don't know the prize and TV money. Secondly, there's uncertainty - the European clubs aren't yet signed up to it and are actively threatening not to participate. I'd say we'll be looking at it in FM a year or two down the line if there's a more concrete idea of what's going to happen by then.
