The 2001 FIFA Club World Championship was a football tournament arranged by FIFA to take place in Spain from 28 July to 12 August 2001. It was supposed to be the second edition of the FIFA Club World Championship, after the first edition a year ago, but was cancelled owing to a combination of factors such as the collapse of FIFA's marketing partner ISL.[1][2]
