Just now, FIFA officially announced the latest edition of the World Club Rankings. In first place is still Manchester City, who have 2,087 points in this period. With the advantages accumulated in the past and the good form of recent times, Manchester City is still significantly ahead of other teams. However, considering that they were eliminated by Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the next points gap may be narrowed by other teams. It's not good news for Manchester City.
In second place is Real Madrid with 2019 points. With recent excellent results on all fronts, as well as a performance such as the elimination of Manchester City in the Champions League. Real Madrid managed to overtake Inter Milan and return to second place. Judging from the current situation, Galaxy Battleship is expected to win on both La Liga and the Champions League this season. It's hard to imagine that they are still in a transition period this season, and if they continue to strengthen the squad in the next transfer window, Real Madrid's overall strength in the coming period will be even more terrifying.
In third place is Inter Milan with 2,010 points. Inter have been tepid lately, but thankfully they have a big points lead in Serie A, which keeps them in the top three. For the Nerazzurri, the most important thing is to win the league title this season. In fourth place is Bayer Leverkusen, who have 1,966 points in the new edition of the table, which puts them in the top five.

If they can maintain this momentum, it is only a matter of time before they finish in the top three. In fifth place is Barcelona, with 1,936 points in this edition. For the La Liga giants, this season has largely lived up to expectations. The team was eliminated in the Champions League, but the result in the quarter-finals was not unacceptable. Considering they had dropped to the Europa League in the previous two seasons, a return to the knockout stages this season is an improvement. It deserves to be ranked fifth.
In sixth place is Arsenal with 1,927 points. Arsenal has been in a lot of bad news lately, losing the initiative to win the title due to an unexpected loss to Villa in the league, and was also eliminated by old rivals Bayern in the Champions League.

Therefore, the possibility of a comeback in the future is very high, and it depends on Arteta's next adjustment.
In seventh place is Liverpool with 1,911 points. Liverpool have dropped from the top five to seventh, which can only be said to be in line with their current form. The team lost points in the league and lost their morale. At the same time, the Europa League is also in constant condition, and Anfield actually lost 0:3, which many fans did not expect. For Liverpool, the season may not end so well. In 8th place is Borussia Dortmund with 1,887 points. Borussia Dortmund have far exceeded expectations this season, although the team is still not stable in the Bundesliga.

For the Southern Kings, this season's Champions League has become the last hope and they must seize it.
