The first week of the newly-expanded Club World Cup in the US has been and gone already.

In the first 32-team format of the competition, the winner will walk away with a whopping $125m (£91.89m), with $1bn (£735m) of prize money being distributed to the 32 participating clubs, according to FIFA.

Two teams from England - Chelsea and Manchester City - are competing, and they are joined by some of the biggest clubs in the world including Real Madrid and recent Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain.

Elsewhere, Lionel Messi's Inter Miami are involved and kickstarted the competition last weekend, while clubs from the likes of Asia, Africa and South America are also taking part.

A total of 12 stadiums from across the USA are hosting matches, and a number of superstar players have their wives and girlfriends in attendance, while others have not travelled to support their partners.

So... who are the WAGs of this summer's Club World Cup stars?
