As winners of the 2000 UEFA Super Cup, Galatasaray was one of the 12 teams that were invited to the 2001 FIFA Club World Championship, which would be hosted in Spain from 28 July to 12 August 2001. However, the tournament was canceled, primarily due to the collapse of ISL, which was a marketing partner of FIFA at the time.
