Fifa agrees joint venture with lobby group EFC

Next edition poised to expand from 32 to 48 clubs
Fifa has agreed to create a joint venture with the lobby group European Football Clubs to operate the Club World Cup, which is likely to mean more Premier League clubs enter the lucrative competition.
Chelsea earned about £84m from winning the inaugural 32-team tournament last year, leading other big European clubs to lobby Fifa for it to be expanded to increase their chances of qualification.
