The inaugural FIFA Women's Club World Cup will take place in January 2028, soccer's global governing body said on Wednesday, with the tournament scheduled for mid-season in Europe's top domestic leagues.

While the Club World Cup receives a four-year overhaul, new competition the FIFA Intercontinental Cup was established in its place from 2024.

FIFA said it would sell $60 tickets to the World Cup, including for the final — but only for supporters of qualified teams. And the actual number of available tickets is limited.

FIFA slashed the price of some World Cup tickets following a worldwide backlash, with some final seats available for $60.

The inaugural Women’s Club World Cup will be staged in January 2028, FIFA said Wednesday. No host nation has been confirmed, but the dates — Jan. 5-30 — likely means the tournament will be staged in a country with a warm climate at that time of the year.

The 16-team tournament will take place in the same year as the LA Olympic Games and midway through the European domestic football season.

Football Supporters Europe (FSE) has called on FIFA to immediately halt sales of national team allocations for next year's World Cup, accusing football's governing body of imposing "extortionate" ticket prices that risk shutting ordinary fans out of the tournament.
