But FIFA said in a statement: “There will be no third-place match, or bronze final, at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025.

“For the inaugural edition of this elite global competition, FIFA decided not to include this match to ensure that clubs and players who do not make the final can transition to their next commitments as soon as possible.”
