The official emblem represents the qualities of Japan utilising the recognisable shape of the Official Trophy of the FIFA Club World Cup as a canvas. As one of the most iconic images of the host nation, the majestic Mount Fuji is featured at the very centre of the emblem.
Inspired by the traditional “Shodo” calligraphy, the silhouette of the globe on the top is shaped by distinctive features, providing a vibrant element that aims to reflect the sun and the well-known Japanese hospitality and solidarity.
