This weekend, his team take on Mexican outfit Club America in a play-off to determine who will play at the FIFA Club World Cup this summer.
Club Leon of Liga MX originally qualified for the tournament, although its ownership structure violated FIFA rules that prohibit more than one team from having the same owners (Leon and fellow Liga MX team Pachuca are both owned by Grupo Pachuca).
Earlier this month, it was then announced that the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) had rejected the appeals of that ruling, and that 'the team to be admitted as a replacement for Club Leon will be determined through a play-off match between LAFC (runners-up to Club Leon in the 2023 Concacaf Champions Cup) and Club America (top-ranked team in the FIFA Club World Cup confederation ranking at the conclusion of the 2024 edition of the Concacaf Champions Cup, the last season taken into account for clubs to qualify for the FIFA Club World Cup 2025)'.
The match between Holm's LAFC and Club America takes place in the early hours of this Sunday.
Should they emerge victorious, they will be in Group D, which is made up of Chelsea, Flamengo, and ES Tunis.
