FIFA may exclude one of the Mexican clubs qualified for this year's Club World Cup.

The information was announced in a statement released by Pachuca this Friday (21).

The club is owned by the same person who owns León, and both have secured a spot for the competition set to take place in the United States.

In the statement, Pachuca expressed disagreement with the decision and said it will appeal "to the highest level".

León, one of the possible clubs to be excluded from the tournament, was drawn to join Flamengo's group in the Club World Cup, alongside Chelsea and Esperance.

Pachuca is part of the key that also includes Inter Milan, River Plate, and Urawa Reds.
