Club World Cup UK broadcaster is revealed with new tournament set to go on free-to-air TV despite FIFA agreeing £787m rights deal with DAZN

The Club World Cup is set to be broadcast on free-to-air Channel 5 in the UK this summer after they reached an agreement with global rights holder DAZN.

The broadcaster will show 23 of the tournament's 63 matches live, including four last-16 ties, two quarter-finals, one semi-final and the final as well as 15 group games.

The matches will also be shown on DAZN, who will exclusively televise the other 40 fixtures after they agreed a £787million deal with FIFA for rights for the tournament.

Channel 5 has previously held the rights to the Europa League, showing it live from 1997 until 2012.
