Althrough the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) not employ a ranking system and/or similar classifications for clubs,[1] do not organise club competitions—being the only exception the World Cup, first contested in 2000—,[2] nor publish parameters that converge at any officialization of a certain type of club tournaments respect others—FIFA considers the clubs as independent organizations affiliated to their respective national associations[1]—due the FIFA's affiliation with the association football for nations, being initially limited to authorize the creation of international competitions for clubs imponing as a condition that were organised by, at least, two member associations, to finally give to the confederations that authorization and the exclusive responsibility to organise these;[3] over time, the mass media have drawn up a list of confederation and inter-confederation club competition winners based on the set of competitions explicitly organised, each in its own context, by one of the six FIFA's confederations, the administrative and controlling bodies for each continent, or directly by the Federation; ordered by an overall quantitative value in descending mode. Also, worth pointing out that the world football's governing body defines in its statute an "official competition" any tournament for "representative teams"—any team representing a member (men or women)[4]—held by FIFA or by a football confederation.[5]
