Here's a recent AP story about Messi:

GENEVA (AP) — FIFA finally announced a first sponsor for its revamped Club World Cup on Wednesday. This is a deal that will market video review checks at next year's tournament in the United States.

Chinese consumer electronics company Hisense will “make branding appear in the video operating room and on pitchside screens,” FIFA said in a statement, as match officials investigate key incidents at the 32-team tournament in 11 American cities from June 15 to July will be held on 13.

Although there has been no video review sponsor at any previous FIFA tournament since the technology was approved ahead of the 2018 Men's World Cup in Russia, Hisense was the official “VAR Screen Provider” for this year's European Championship, organized by UEFA in Germany .

Less than eight months before the start of the Club World Cup – Lionel Messi's Inter Miami is hosting the first game of a tournament in which Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich play their first competitive games in the United States – the company now has a sponsor, but it he still lacks any broadcasting contracts.

FIFA's talks over a global streaming deal with Apple+ stalled several months ago, and U.S. sponsors have become more focused on deals for the 2026 Men's World Cup, co-hosted with Canada and Mexico.

Long-time FIFA sponsors Adidas, Coca-Cola and Wanda, whose tournament contracts run until the 2030 World Cup, have yet to be confirmed as commercial partners for the Club World Cup.

Saudi Arabian sponsors are expected to close a deal for the Club World Cup soon, helping FIFA President Gianni Infantino fulfill his promises to participating teams that the tournament's total prize money will reach hundreds of millions of dollars every four years. FIFA will confirm Saudi Arabia as host of the 2034 World Cup on December 11.

The new Hisense deal “paves the way for further sponsorship deals for FIFA's new flagship club competition to be announced in the coming weeks,” football's world governing body said.

FIFA did not provide any information on the value of Infantino's contract at a signing ceremony in Shanghai.

Reviews of refereeing decisions on key incidents – goals, penalties and red cards – can take at least two minutes, although FIFA aimed to complete reviews in around 10 seconds in its 2016 reviews.

Hisense signed up as a FIFA sponsor for the 2018 World Cup for the first time and extended its contract for the 2022 edition in Qatar.

The television and laptop maker also signed its first sponsorship deal with UEFA ahead of Euro 2016, when Infantino was still general secretary of the European football association.

Europe will send 12 teams to the revamped Club World Cup, which will feature continental champions and teams with consistently good results in those competitions over the four seasons from 2020 to 2024.

The number of participants is limited to two countries, unless at least three continental titles have won during the four-year qualifying period. Liverpool, Leipzig and Barcelona, ​​​​who were among the twelve best teams in Europe in the Champions League, were exempt from this rule.

The spot reserved for the host nation's champions was unexpectedly awarded by FIFA this month to Inter Miami based on its regular-season record, rather than waiting for the MLS Cup final on Dec. 7. This decision ensured that Messi could be there.

The tournament draw is expected in early December after final participation is confirmed when the South American Copa Libertadores final is played on November 30.
