South Korean side Ulsan HD, who qualified for the tournament based on their four-year Asian Football Confederation ranking, are one such team looking forward to the Club World Cup.
Ulsan HD’s CEO Kim Kwang-kug says he anticipates that “this experience will bring the biggest growth in the club’s 42-year history.”
He says that by playing in the Club World Cup, Ulsan’s “competitiveness in various aspects, including performance and administration, as well as our fan club and other affiliated groups, will experience remarkable growth.”
As well as the chance to play against some of the world’s biggest clubs, teams like Ulsan will also see a financial windfall, which CEO Kim says “will provide a major boost to the club’s finances” and allow them not only to sign players that can have an immediate impact, but also help them nurture the next generation of young players.
