Encyclopedic overview
The CONCACAF Champions Cup, formerly known as CONCACAF Champions League (2008–2023), is an international association football competition organized by CONCACAF as its top continental tournament for clubs from North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. The champions automatically qualify for the FIFA Club World Cup and the FIFA Intercontinental Cup.
The tournament currently uses a knockout format; it had a group stage prior to the 2018 edition. Unlike Europe's UEFA Champions League and South America's Copa Libertadores, the winner of the CONCACAF Champions Cup does not automatically qualify for the following edition of the tournament.
