Historic Money Pot for Club World Cup
The Straits Times
|March 07, 2025
Fifa announced on March 5 it will pay a total prize money of US$1 billion (S$1.33 billion) to participants in the Club World Cup taking place in the United States in 2025.

PARIS -
The figure is significantly more than the prize money offered for either the last men's or women's World Cups. World football's governing body has given few details about the funding of the first edition of the 32-team tournament that will take place every four years, but it has signed up a broadcaster and major sponsors in recent weeks.
In a statement confirming the prize money, Fifa said it expected to generate US$2 billion in revenues from the expanded competition. It also confirmed that a women's edition will take place from 2028.
"The Fifa Club World Cup will not only be the pinnacle of club football, but also a vivid demonstration of solidarity that will benefit clubs at large to a scale that no other competition has ever done," said Fifa president Gianni Infantino.
