ERLING HAALAND, Harry Kane and Luis Suarez and are set to square off at the Club World Cup.
And Dazn’s latest trailer for the reformatted event brings that essence to life.
The advert takes inspiration from Dazn’s other major sporting partnership in boxing by having the stars lace up their gloves ready for battle.
Manchester City’s resident “Hitman” Haaland is seen having his gloves taped up at the start of the video.
He is followed by former Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani.
The Uruguayan is seen with a cape draped over his shoulders in the colours of his current team, Boca Juniors, which also has the text “El Matador” on the back.
Bayern Munich and England captain Kane, nicknamed the “Hurrikane” for the trailer, is also seen getting his gloves done up ahead of a “ring walk”.
The iconic voice of boxing announcer Michael Buffer is then heard echoing over the video, set to the tune of Eric B. & Rakim’s track “Don’t Sweat the Technique”.
Inter Miami bad boy Luis Suarez is then seen with a pink hood over his head.
The music then kicks into overdrive as Haaland is seen using skipping ropes, Cavani shedding his cape, Suarez showing off a mouth guard, with Buffer then announcing the World Cup to a stadium of fans.
Kane is seen walking into the raucous ground in a red hoodie, with Haaland seen in a sky blue matching fit.
The trailer also teases Dazn’s lead presenter for the tournament as Diletta Leotta is seen standing in front of an advertising board.
We then cut away to a helicopter hovering over a stadium filled to the brim with fans as the night lights on it shine like a beacon in the night.
Kane and Co then enter the stadium to the roar of an expecting crowd as Haaland is seen signing a ball for a fan.
The remarkable Club World Cup trophy is briefly shown, before Suarez is seen roaring and Cavani pointing up to the sky.
The video ends with Kane and Haaland facing off in a ring, which then abruptly cuts to the kick-off of a football match.
This year the Club World Cup will begin on June 14 and run through to Sunday July 13.
The 32-team tournament will be played out across 12 venues in 11 cities across the United States.
Pete Oliver, CEO of Growth Markets at DAZN, said: “We’re excited to partner with FIFA for this historical event, where throughout June and July and across the globe, fans will tune in on DAZN for the first time in history to see one club crowned the undisputed champion of the world.”
All 63 games of the competition will be available to watch on Dazn.
