    By IANS News June 22, 2025 • 18:52 PM View: 768
    FIFA Club World Cup: German football legend and Bayern Munich board member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has voiced strong support for the newly expanded 32-team FIFA Club World Cup, calling it a necessary evolution despite skepticism surrounding the tournament's sporting value.

    The 69-year-old former striker and European champion told Welt am Sonntag that the growth of the tournament was "inevitable" and praised FIFA president Gianni Infantino, as reported by Xinhua.

    "As a player, I would be happy to experience something new," said Rummenigge, who won the European Cup twice with Bayern Munich. "The tournament gains momentum when it reaches the knockout stage - that's always the case with major competitions."
