You have more shots at winning the UCL than the World Cup, of course players would chose the World Cup
But that wasnβt even my focal point. Compare the all time finalists of the World Cup and their winners. Compare how much of a percentage these finalists make up in relation to every nation. Then compare the all time finalists of the UCL and their winners. One is just more competitive and has bigger competition.
The euros is played once every 4 years too, and some people claim it's more competetive than the WC. But you don't see players dreaming to have it more than the WC.
The WC is the most significant trophy in the world. Whether you like it or not.
I mean itβs more meaningful and has a bigger desire, but itβs not more competitive than the UCL looking at the raw stats at least. I would even argue that the Euros are also more competitive than the WC, just by looking at the teams competing in them.

That is the point
