JAKARTA - Chelsea won the title in the 2021 Club World Cup after beating Palmeiras on Sunday, February 13 last. For this victory, the Blues have the right to put the gold club world champion logo on their jersey.
However, it cannot be implemented immediately. The reason is that Chelsea is still participating in the English Premier League competition, where the organizers of the top caste competition for English football have banned the use of the logo.
Quoted from Marca, Tuesday, February 15, the ban on the use of the golden logo of the club world cup champions is based on English League rules which prohibit changes to the jersey in the middle of the season.
Whereas Liverpool was allowed to display the gold logo on their jersey in one game after winning the Club World Cup, two years ago.
If you look at the policy of two years ago, Chelsea may also be able to use the logo on their jersey provided they request a similar exception.
But on the other hand, Chelsea can still use the logo in all Champions League matches. So they can proudly show the logo when they face Lille in the last 16 of the Champions League, Wednesday 23 February.
Not only in the Champions League, Thomas Tuchel's foster children can also show off the champion's golden logo when appearing in the FA Cup. But on condition that they must apply for special permission first to the FA.
In FIFA regulations it is known that the world champion logo is only allowed to be used on the first team jersey. FIFA has banned the logo from being used on training equipment.
"In accordance with usage guidelines, the winning team may wear the FIFA World Champion badge from the day of being champions up to and including the final of the next edition of the tournament," FIFA said in a statement.
In its explanation FIFA also said the badge can only be used on the official team uniform at this time. Thus, the logo cannot be used on old team jerseys, training shirts, sports jerseys, training tops or other products.
Despite the policy regarding the golden logo, Chelsea has been successfully listed as the third English team to win the Club World Cup. Previously there were Manchester United and Liverpool. This victory is also a redemption for failure in 2012 when they lost 1-0 to Corinthians in the final.
