Why Qatar?

Qatar will host the next two Club World Cup tournaments in 2019 and 2020, with both serving as test events for the country hosting the 2022 World Cup.

Fifa has moved the next World Cup to a new slot in winter because of the oppressive summer heat in Qatar.

the timing of the the Club World Cup will allow "for testing under similar climatic conditions".

Liverpool's matches at the tournament will be played at the new Education City Stadium in Doha, which has been built for the World Cup.
