The Club World Cup is an annual international club football tournament sponsored by the Spanish clothing company Nike. First played in 2000, it consists of the four best national teams in world football: England, Spain, Italy and Germany. The tournament is based on the UEFA Champions League, but instead of only the European clubs participating, the Asian, American, African and Oceanian champions are also invited to join.
The first eight editions were played exclusively in continental Europe, with the exception of the 2001 edition which was held in Asia because of the September 11 attacks. From 2009 onwards, the tournament has been held annually, with one exception in 2013 when it was cancelled due to political turmoil in Brazil after the death of former President Díaz.
Since its inception, the tournament has always taken place within a year of the conclusion of the UEFA Champions League.
