30 days to glory: Africa’s elite prepare for the Club World Cup

The countdown is on. In just 30 days, history will be made as the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 kicks off in its biggest format yet – featuring 32 of the world’s best clubs. For Africa, the spotlight shines on four giants carrying the hopes of an entire continent: Al Ahly (Egypt), Mamelodi Sundowns (South Africa), Esperance de Tunis (Tunisia), and Wydad Athletic Club (Morocco).

Each of these clubs brings its own story, challenges, and dreams to the global stage.

Africa’s most successful club is at a crossroads. After their shock exit from the CAF Champions League, Marcel Koller was dismissed, and now, all eyes are on reported new boss Jose Riveiro (currently at Orlando Pirates). Can the Spanish coach bring fresh ideas to the Cairo giants?

Their first test? None other than Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami. Before that, a friendly against Mexico’s Pachuca will reveal just how ready they are.

Fresh off securing a place in the CAF Champions League final, Sundowns are flying high. Under Portuguese coach Miguel Cardoso, their attacking flair and tactical discipline have made them one of Africa’s most exciting teams.

A potential friendly against Benfica could be the perfect warm-up before the big dance. As chairman Tlhopane Motsepe put it: “This isn’t just about Sundowns – it’s about Africa hosting the world. We’re ready to make our mark.”

Despite falling short in the Champions League semifinals, Esperance remain Tunisia’s undisputed kings. Sitting atop their domestic league, they now aim to turn local dominance into global success. Known for their grit and organization, they’ll be out to prove they belong among the elite.

The 2022 African champions are in transition after the departure of coach Rulani Mokwena. With a new manager yet to be named, the Moroccan giants must find unity – and fast.

New signing Samuel Obeng (ex-Casa Pia) has already promised fans: “We’ll give everything to make you proud in June.”

With just a month left, preparations are in full swing – training camps, high-profile friendlies, last-minute signings, and tactical tweaks. Injuries, coaching changes, and squad depth will all play a part in who arrives ready for battle.

This isn’t just another tournament. It’s a chance for African football to shake the world. The question isn’t if they can compete – it’s how far they can go.

The clock is ticking. The stage is set. Will Africa rise to the occasion?
