England manager Thomas Tuchel believes that Liverpool and Arsenal will gain a competitive advantage in the Premier League while Chelsea and Manchester City compete in this summer's Club World Cup. The tournament, featuring 32 teams including 12 from Europe, will occupy significant time for the participating clubs' players, potentially impacting their preparation and performance for the Premier League. Despite this, Tuchel acknowledges the excitement of the competing players, who are eager to participate and not concerned about resting for league matches.
Tuchel believes the new version of the Club World Cup will have a big impact on the Premier League sides taking part.
I think it will give Liverpool and Arsenal a huge advantage in the next season to not be there.
The games are not the problem. It's just the amount of time it occupies with the players, and they need some rest in this calendar.
They all want to play. There is not one player who says they want to be on the bench and save themselves for the Club World Cup.
