The tournament which will be held in each continent at the same time will last for a month as all games will start with group ties played over two legs.
The money realized will be managed by FIFA who will in turn reward each club or representatives during an award to the Champions at its inauguration of the interClub tournament in the Hall of Heroes in Zurich, Switzerland.
According to reports, the clubs were chosen because of the level of popularity they command as their pedigree will help to raise millions in a quicker mandatory form.
The dates and times for the competition will depend on when the COVID 19 pandemic will be totally reduced and also safe to carry out sports activities.
