Bayern Munich is set to participate in the new Club World Cup format, scheduled every four years, raising fresh concerns about fixture congestion during a crowded 2025 calendar.
Fixture congestion increases the risk of injuries for players and impacts their personal lives, as highlighted by Bernardo Silva's remarks on difficulties maintaining friendships amid demanding schedules.
Joshua Kimmich expressed a contrary view on fixture congestion, stating he enjoys playing frequent matches and prefers competing in real tournaments over friendlies, showcasing a positive mentality.
The introduction of the Champions League's new league phase format will expand the number of games teams have to play before the round of 16, complicating fixture management.
