Saudi Arabia will host this year's edition of the tournament, with Champions League winners Manchester City the overwhelming favourites to bring home another piece of silverware.

European teams have won 15 of the 19 editions of the competition to date, while South American champions have swept up the remaining four.

The continental club champions from each of the six devolved governing bodies will collide in a bid for glory, while the host nation will be represented by Saudi Pro League champions Al-Ittihad in the seven-team tournament.
