Infantino’s Decision to Include Inter Miami in Club World Cup a Bold Move, but Deserved?
In a shocking turn of events, FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced that Inter Miami would be included in the 2025 Club World Cup, just minutes after the team’s convincing 6-2 win over New England Revolution, which saw them break Major League Soccer’s points record. This news has left many wondering if this decision is a masterstroke or a massive mistake.
Inter Miami’s astonishing form has seen them rack up 74 points, shattering the previous record of 73 points set by the Revolution in 2021. And it’s no surprise, given the presence of global superstar Lionel Messi, who popped up off the bench to net a hat-trick within 11 minutes, sparking a rout of the Revolution.
But does Inter Miami’s impressive form and sensational play earn them a spot in the prestigious Club World Cup? The answer is a resounding yes. According to Infantino, "Inter Miami’s incredible success this season, along with their record-breaking points haul, ensures they are one of the top teams in the world. It’s only fitting that they join the world’s elite on the global stage."
Infantino’s decision has been met with widespread approval, with many praising the President’s bold move. "This is a huge opportunity for Inter Miami, and a testament to their tireless efforts on the pitch," said one fan. "They’ve earned this chance to rub shoulders with the best of the best, and I’m excited to see how they’ll perform."
However, there are others who argue that the inclusion of a relatively new team in the Club World Cup dilutes the tournament’s prestige. "Inter Miami is still a relatively new franchise, and while they’ve had an impressive season, do they truly belong among the likes of Europe’s top clubs?" asked another fan.
Ultimately, the decision is up to Infantino and his team, but one thing is certain: Inter Miami’s inclusion in the 2025 Club World Cup has generated excitement and debate in equal measure. Will they make a lasting impression on the global stage or fall short of expectations? Only time will tell.
