As of now, in the Club World Cup, the four Liberators Cup champions in South America have not lost. Fans all over the world know that European teams are the most competitive in the club category, but in the Club World Cup, the South American champions do not seem to be at a disadvantage. If you think Palmeiras wins Cairo's nationals to bully people by the strong, but Botafogo wins Paris Saint-Germain, and Flamengo wins Chelsea, how do you explain it?

After all, it is the South American champion. Even if you compare horizontally, you cannot compete against Brazil and Argentina in the World Cup, but at least, it will not be much worse than the top European giants. There are still some fights in direct duels.

By the way, I always say that there are four Liberators champions in South America. In fact, this statement hides a more subtle fact-these four teams are all from Brazil - Palmeiras, Botafogo, Flamengo, and Fruminense.

The four teams are the Liberators Cup champions from 2021 to 2024. According to the rules of the Club World Cup, a league can only have two places at most, unless this league can summarize the championships of the continents in the past four years (such as the Champions League, the AFC Champions League, and the Liberators Cup). It can be said that the Brazilian League has been too domineering in recent years. While monopolizing the Liberator Cup, it has also vigorously removed this established rule.

Relatively speaking, the teams sent by Europe this time are very balanced. Most of the leagues are sent out to two teams, of which there is only one in Ligue 1 and the Olympic Super League. So the question is, in the future Club World Cup, can there be a league in Europe that can send 4 participating teams like this time in the Brazilian League?

Perhaps, there is and only one. Premier League.

There is only one way to break the established rule that only two teams participate, that is, to win the Champions League championship for four consecutive years within the time frame of the Club World Cup qualification reference. And more importantly, the four teams cannot be repeated.

Let's take La Liga as an example. Real Madrid had won three consecutive Champions League titles before, but this was just their own carnival. Assuming there would be a new version of the Club World Cup at that time, then Real Madrid won the quota for participating teams, while also squeezing the space of teams such as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Besides, in La Liga, who else can win the Champions League championship besides Real Madrid and Barcelona? Atletico Madrid? Forget it, the golden period between 2014 and 2016 has long passed.

The other major leagues also have this problem to varying degrees. For example, in the Bundesliga, Bayern dominated the market and firmly occupied one place. But teams such as Dortmund, Red Bull Leipzig, and Leverkusen cannot achieve stable output in the Champions League, let alone win the championship. Ligue 1 is even more out of the way. Except for Paris Saint-Germain, there is no team that can stand out in recent years. In Serie A, Inter Milan has been able to achieve stable output in the Champions League in recent years.

Only in the Premier League, if you think about it, you can come up with four or five teams that have the strength to win the Champions League, Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea. These are all giants who have won the Champions League title in recent years. Arsenal has also initially achieved this strength in its recovery, and the final four last season is proof of this. This means that Manchester United and Tottenham have declined, otherwise, they should actually be included.

We assume that the new version of the Club World Cup has existed for more than 60 years, so in the history of the Champions League, there are indeed only the top league in England (there was no Premier League before, only the English League One), which can cultivate three different Champions League champions within three years. It was the early 1980s, Nottingham Forest, Liverpool, and Aston Villa won the Big Ear Cup in a row. If there was a new version of the Club World Cup at that time, then the League One would be equivalent to sending three teams.

Of course, the probability of sending four teams in the Premier League is still extremely small. After all, the intensity of competition in European football is much greater than that in South American football. But the problem is that if the Premier League cannot do it, other leagues cannot do it.
