FIFA Club World Cup 2025 new signings: 13 Fresh faces to watch
Manchester City and Real Madrid are two of the teams that have signed great first-team players to make their teams look stronger. Apart from them, teams like Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and Dortmund have also added some players to their teams. Let us look at the signing team by team:
Real Madrid signings
Trent Alexander-Arnold:
The most anticipated signing of Real Madrid is official now. Real Madrid needed to bring a strong player for the right-back position as Lucas Vazquez will leave the club after the competition, and Dani Carvajal is getting old. Trent will wear Marcelo’s number 12, and he is probably the best attacking full-back in the world right now.
Dean Huijsen:
The Spanish centre back had caught a lot of attention from bigger European clubs, but he always wanted to play for Real Madrid. His ball-carrying ability is just remarkable, and he is a very strong defender. He has shown what he can do in the UEFA Nations League.

Manchester City signings
Tijjani Reijnders:
He is one of the most underrated midfielders right now. After the departure of Kevin De Bruyne, they had to reinforce the midfield; surely, Reijnders is a good shout. He is more like an Ilkay Gundogan type of player. The midfielder of Manchester City is secured for the next six to eight years.
Rayan Ait-Nouri:
The former Wolves left-back is now a Manchester City player. This season is one of the seasons where he performed brilliantly and earned a place in Pep’s Manchester City team. He can use both feet and act as an inverted fullback, and can invert into the midfield very easily.
Rayan Cherki:
He is a promising French attacker who was keen on joining a big team in Europe someday. What can be a better team than Manchester City? Pep Guardiola can be the best version of himself and the one that he has probably ever seen so far. He will slide to that right winger spot and can play as an attacking mid as well.
What are some of the other signings teams made?
Jonathan Tah (Bayern Munich):
It was more than confirmed that Tah would leave Bayer Leverkusen, but the question was which team he would join. He was heavily linked with FC Barcelona, but now he will play in the same league as he played before, but for Bayern Munich.

Liam Delap (Chelsea):
Chelsea were too much in need of a proper number nine; they have most probably got it. The young English striker had scored 12 goals for Ipswich Town in the Premier League this season. He scored more than 40% of his team’s goals. Chelsea is the team where he will receive more chances to score.
Jobe Bellingham (Dortmund):
Just like his brother Jude, Jobe has also signed for Dortmund after moving out of England. The midfielder was an important part of the promotion of Sunderland to the Premier League. His time is done, and he wants a new challenge. Jode dreams of playing with his brother Jude at Real Madrid one day.
There are also a lot of other signings that have been made by the teams in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. The signings are Gabri Veiga (Porto),Jorginho (Flamengo), and Alvaro Montoro (Botafogo).
