The Club World Cup is still host to all kinds of preseason fitness issues, and the best we can do is move the whole thing up by four weeks.
This takes the existing summer tournament scheduled for 2025 and makes it finish 4 weeks later with the final on Community Shield weekend (which should get bumped if you're in both). I'm not sure how the default version grabs the 5th-12th European teams (IRL it's a 4-year ranking), I've gone with the 8-year club coefficient you can sort by in the editor. Also updated the prize money.
If anyone has noticed any other issues with the CWC so far let me know, this will have the same problems as the default version but we can fix it here (working on making the US host 2025 every time).
EDIT: Note that the last official patch might have fixed the fitness issue, meaning you won't need this anymore?
Compatible with:
USA 2024 | Intercontinental Cup | CONCACAF to Libertadores | Russian clubs to ACL

Yeah no sh*t, this is the same fixture amount as the default competition, which will start in 2025 in real life. Check my intercontinental cup file for the implementation of that December 2024 tournament, it's also true-to-life but more along the lines of what you're thinking (that classic 2-game tournament for the Euro and South American teams is done as of 2023).
Anyway someone said you don't actually need this file in the 24.3 update since SI might have fixed the fitness/preseason issue themselves

adding the money prizes would be great

@The Modelcitizen why does this turn off goal line technology for Premier League?
The Modelcitizen
WTF, I have no memory of that, lol, no idea why that's there. Will take a look and remove it. BUT isn't this file no longer necessary, I swear they dealt with the fitness/CWC bug in the official patch in April? Let me know if not. Also have a smaller 16-team CWC at the SI Games forum, that uses the correct 2025 stadiums and prize money. Thanks for flagging this @Footygamer
The Modelcitizen
Actually the last update made it impossible to verify this IIRC, maybe they somehow added that change too but either way not sure I can fix it
Footygamer
@The Modelcitizen to be honest I was looking at it because I was trying to figure out a way to move the start date so it starts in 2024 instead of 2025 and thought your file would be a good base to start from.
Do you mind if I distribute this file with the dates moved to 2024?
The Modelcitizen
Why 2024? Won't the big teams be drained by Euro/Copa America call-ups?
