FIFA has announced that the draw for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup will be held in Miami on Thursday 5 December at 13:00 local time, or 19:00 in Italy.

The event will be broadcast live on the Nerazzurri's official channels: fans will be able to follow the Miami draw on Inter TV, inter.it, the official app and the club's YouTube channel.

The broadcast will begin at 18:50 CET, live from the studio in Appiano Gentile, with in-depth coverage of the new competition, live images from Miami and analysis of Inter's possible opponents.

The guest of the programme will be Goran Pandev: the Nerazzurri legend, a regular pundit on the Champions League matches, who will be connected live with the Inter TV studio, offering viewers all his experience as a former footballer, with a dive into the past exploring the Club World Cup that Inter won in 2010 partly due to one of his goals.

An unmissable event as we look forward to the FIFA Club World Cup, which will be played in the United States from 15 June to 13 July 2025.
