But the real question clubs are asking is: where is the money coming from?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Interview with Andrea Sartori by Marco Iaria | La Gazzetta dello Sport<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following an <strong>emergency meeting<\/strong> with broadcasters called by president <strong>Infantino<\/strong>, uncertainty still looms. What we do know is that, initially, FIFA&#8217;s president hoped to generate <strong>$4 billion<\/strong>, believing that the expanded <strong>Club World Cup<\/strong> had similar commercial potential to the <strong>national team World Cup<\/strong>. More recently, it came to light that <strong>Apple<\/strong> had offered <strong>$1 billion<\/strong> for global TV rights, a proposal FIFA rejected, as they were more interested in exploring a <strong>plan B<\/strong>: broadcasting the event on its own streaming platform with the backing of a <strong>$2 billion investment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What will the final outcome be? It is hard to predict. However, we can estimate the potential value of the Club World Cup by comparing it to existing international competitions and focusing on the average per-game value of TV rights.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.socialfootballsummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1008-819x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19930\" style=\"width:546px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.socialfootballsummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1008-819x1024.png 819w, https:\/\/www.socialfootballsummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1008-240x300.png 240w, https:\/\/www.socialfootballsummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1008-768x960.png 768w, https:\/\/www.socialfootballsummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1008.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to data from <strong>Football Benchmark<\/strong>, the <strong>FIFA World Cup<\/strong> leads the pack in terms of revenue generation. In its most recent edition (2022), it commanded an impressive <strong>\u20ac41.7 million<\/strong> per match from audiovisual rights alone. Following closely are the <strong>UEFA European Championships<\/strong>, with the 2020 edition (held in 2021) averaging <strong>\u20ac22.3 million<\/strong> per game in TV rights value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next in line is the <strong>UEFA Champions League<\/strong>. While UEFA has experienced revenue growth with the new format introduced this year, this is largely due to the increase in the number of matches, from <strong>125 to 189<\/strong>. In reality, the average value per game has declined from <strong>\u20ac21.4 million<\/strong> to <strong>\u20ac16.8 million<\/strong>. Nevertheless, this remains significantly higher than its South American counterpart, the <strong>Copa Libertadores<\/strong>, which averages just <strong>\u20ac1.7 million<\/strong> per match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Averaging between <strong>$20 and $25 million<\/strong> per match, multiplied by <strong>63 games<\/strong>, would yield a total of <strong>$1.2 to $1.5 billion<\/strong>. While I\u2019m not a TV rights expert, considering comparable events, the nature of the competition, the caliber of the participating clubs, and the scale of potential markets, the Club World Cup could eventually reach that valuation,&#8221; explains <strong>Andrea Sartori<\/strong>, founder and CEO of Football Benchmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By its very nature, the tournament brings together the <strong>cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me<\/strong> of <strong>European football<\/strong>, despite the absence of renowned clubs such as <strong>FC Barcelona<\/strong>, <strong>Manchester United<\/strong>, <strong>AC Milan<\/strong>, and <strong>Liverpool<\/strong>. It also features top-tier <strong>South American teams<\/strong> and highly passionate footballing nations like <strong>Egypt<\/strong>, <strong>Morocco<\/strong>, <strong>Saudi Arabia<\/strong>, and the <strong>Far East<\/strong>. In short, the lineup boasts immensely attractive participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The challenge lies in the fact that this new tournament, despite being held every four years, is being squeezed into an already congested football calendar. For now, it lacks the <strong>prestige<\/strong> and <strong>recognition<\/strong> enjoyed by more established events in the eyes of both industry stakeholders and the public. Iconic competitions like the <strong>Champions League<\/strong> and the <strong>FIFA World Cup<\/strong> for national teams command monumental brand power and have deeply entrenched global recognition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How much are broadcasters willing to invest in a tournament that, while undoubtedly exciting, has never been held in this format before and is scheduled at the tail end of an exhausting season? Yet, the real concern lies elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The <strong>marginal value<\/strong> of matches is declining because there are too many. If you have caviar for dinner five nights in a row, by the sixth night, you\u2019ll likely crave something different,&#8221; Sartori notes, using a fitting analogy. Simply increasing the number of football events does not necessarily enhance their value; in fact, it risks diminishing the overall quality of the product. This is a fundamental market principle, especially in the <strong>entertainment industry<\/strong>, where a diverse array of competitors vie for attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The competition for attention is fierce, spanning traditional sports to emerging disciplines, social media to gaming, and cinema to TV series \u2013 especially when it comes to engaging <strong>younger generations<\/strong>. Although the range of options has expanded, people&#8217;s <strong>free time<\/strong> remains constant, despite the misguided belief held by some rights holders that they can stretch the hours dedicated to leisure. Within the football ecosystem itself, we are witnessing an unrelenting struggle, driven by the rapid evolution of this industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Football,&#8221; Sartori notes, &#8220;has become a global phenomenon largely due to the <strong>digitalization<\/strong> of media and the <strong>accessibility<\/strong> of the product. You can watch a football match from virtually anywhere in the world at a relatively low cost, not to mention accessibility through <strong>illegal streaming<\/strong>.&#8221; This surge in accessibility has been accompanied by an overwhelming increase in supply, leading to a saturation of the market. Analyzing trends in TV rights, it becomes evident that while the values for international competitions have risen, domestic leagues have experienced a <strong>flattening curve<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">TV rights function like a system of <strong>communicating vessels<\/strong>, where broadcasters allocate resources based on what resonates with audiences. \u201cA product like the Champions League, even in its new format, is significantly more appealing,\u201d Sartori explains. \u201cInternational competitions are currently the main draw for public interest, and broadcasters consider this when planning their budgets. The <strong>English Premier League<\/strong> thrives not just because of the on-pitch action, but also due to its impressive stadiums and vibrant crowds. However, for other leagues, competing in this landscape is challenging. I see a certain short-sightedness in maintaining the <strong>20-team format<\/strong> when football is increasingly leaning toward globalization. While I understand that leagues want to protect their local communities, fans are gravitating in a different direction. If they don&#8217;t recognize this shift, those fans may eventually turn to alternative forms of entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The top <strong>European clubs<\/strong> have acted decisively to reduce their reliance on domestic TV rights and, more broadly, on media revenues. The primary source of income has shifted to the <strong>commercial sector<\/strong>, which accounted for <strong>45%<\/strong> of Real Madrid\u2019s revenue, <strong>48%<\/strong> of Manchester City\u2019s, <strong>49%<\/strong> of Barcelona\u2019s, and an impressive <strong>60%<\/strong> of PSG\u2019s during the <strong>2022\/23 season<\/strong>. &#8220;This prompts these clubs to take a keen interest in international competitions capable of attracting a global fanbase,&#8221; Sartori observes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it is true that football has embraced globalization and significant opportunities lie therein, there remains a lack of <strong>unified vision<\/strong> or <strong>harmonization<\/strong> in offerings. After all, the regulators of the most lucrative tournaments \u2013 <strong>FIFA<\/strong> and <strong>UEFA<\/strong> \u2013 also oversee commercial activities, and they have entered into an <strong>economic contest<\/strong>, adding depth to the intricate web of interests involved. \u201cEach rights holder is primarily focused on their own competitions, viewing their product as a profit center independent of the broader ecosystem. This creates a situation where revenues are cannibalized, with one property undermining another,\u201d Sartori concludes. The <strong>Club World Cup<\/strong>, with its potential to become a highly attractive product, risks exemplifying this issue perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballbenchmark.com\/home\">Content created by Football Benchmark<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The venues have finally been confirmed: FIFA has revealed the 12 U.S. stadiums that will host the expanded 32-team Club World Cup from June 15 to July 13, 2025.
