CBF comunica à Fifa interesse do Brasil em sediar a Copa do Mundo de Clubes em 2029

O sucesso no Brasil da primeira Copa do Mundo de Clubes da Fifa, disputada nos EUA, já faz a CBF pensar na próxima edição, que deve acontecer em 2029. Samir Xaud, presidente da entidade, comunicou nesta sexta a Gianni Infantino e Mattias Grafström, presidente e secretário-geral da Fifa, a intenção do Brasil de ser o país-sede da competição daqui a quatro anos. A ideia foi bem recebida pelos dirigentes, segundo Xaud, e é “totalmente possível”.

— Tudo começou com uma conversa de apresentação. Falei dos meus objetivos à frente da CBF e disse que queremos estar mais próximos da Fifa. Elogiei o evento e o nível dos clubes brasileiros e, por fim, coloquei o país à disposição para receber a próxima Copa do Mundo. Ele (Infantino) ficou muito feliz, disse que é totalmente possível. Agora vamos trabalhar para que dê certo. Vai ser um golaço — disse ao GLOBO o presidente da CBF.

Para além do ótimo desempenho dos clubes brasileiros e da excelente audiência que o evento vem tendo no Brasil, a empolgação do país foi o que motivou a CBF a tomar esse primeiro passo. Ainda não se trata de uma oficialização de candidatura, mas a confederação considera já ter manifestado formalmente o desejo.

O encontro entre Infantino e o presidente da CBF aconteceu na Cúpula Executiva de Futebol da Fifa, em Miami, com representantes das 211 associações-membro da entidade. O Brasil esteve representada no evento pelo presidente Samir Xaud e o vice-presidente Gustavo Dias Henrique.

Nos bastidores, a Fifa está muito contente com a empolgação brasileira em relação ao torneio, que é prioridade na atual gestão da federação internacional — o que pode ajudar numa eventual candidatura e eleição como sede. Infantino inclusive vem postando nas redes sociais imagens da torcida brasileira assistindo os jogos nas praias do país.

Apesar de a edição de 2025 ser tratada como evento-teste para a Copa do Mundo do ano seguinte — que terá Estados Unidos, Canadá e México como sedes —, a Fifa não considera obrigatório que a edição de 2029 aconteça em um dos países que vão receber o Mundial de seleções em 2030. O Marrocos, uma das sedes da Copa de 2030, já havia manifestado o desejo de sediar o torneio de clubes sozinho, mas recentemente o presidente da federação marroquina, Fouzi Lekjaa, afirmou que os três países (Marrocos, Espanha e Portugal) poderiam receber o evento, em preparação para a competição de seleções.

Mattias Grafström, secretário-geral da Fifa, no entanto, não esconde que o torneio pode acontecer em qualquer lugar, tendo citado recentemente até a América do Sul como possível destino. Segundo o The Athletic, até mesmo uma segunda edição nos Estados Unidos é cogitada, numa jogada comercial para manter os patrocinadores do país.

Outro país que já se manifestou sobre o torneio foi a Austrália. Após o sucesso da Copa do Mundo Feminina de 2023, a federação local anunciou que o país se candidataria para receber tanto a Copa Asiática Feminina da AFC de 2026 (já confirmada) quanto a Copa do Mundo de Clubes da Fifa de 2029. Nada foi oficializado até o momento, no entanto. Nem mesmo a Fifa divulgou nada sobre como a escolha será feita.

Além de ter recebido a Copa do Mundo de 2014, o Brasil vai sediar o Mundial Feminino em 2027. A Copa do Mundo de Clubes de 2029 utilizaria a mesma estrutura dos outros grandes eventos da Fifa no país.

Apesar da ideia inicial de expansão para 48 clubes, a segunda edição da Copa do Mundo de Clubes da Fifa está planejada para junho e julho de 2029, com 32 times. Caso o Brasil seja o país-sede, terá uma vaga extra, provavelmente destinada ao campeão brasileiro de 2028. Os quatro campeões da Libertadores entre 2025 e 2028 também estarão classificados, além de duas vagas via ranking específico do torneio da Conmebol.

Atualmente, já têm vaga garantida na segunda edição: o Al-Ahli-ASA, campeão da Liga dos Campeões da Ásia; o Pyramis-EGI, vencedor do torneio continental da África; o Cruz Azul-MEX, campeão da Concachampions deste ano; e o PSG, campeão europeu.
