When the prize pool for the Club World Cup 2025 was announced, it sent shock waves through the sport. The total price fund of $ 1 billion is in the world of football without a precedent; FIFA wanted to ensure that teams seriously took the extensive tournament this summer.
The will of Real Madrid, Manchester City, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain were brought together for the inaugural edition of the New Look competition and a huge cash-jackpot. The winning team could earn up to $ 125 million in total prize money.
During an event earlier this year, FIFA president Gianni Infantino said: “The distribution model of the FIFA Club World Cup reflects the highlight of club football and represents the biggest prize money ever for a football tournament with a group phase of seven games and a play-off format with a possible payment of $ 5” “
How does the prize money work at the Club World Cup?
The main prize is described as a “potential” amount because only a select group of teams that can actually reach the highest figure. The payment distribution structure includes a 'participation pillar' that assigns a sum of money for each team for their appearance at the tournament. However, not all teams will be paid the same and clubs of the highest confederation (UEFA) can earn considerably more.
The participation – income is as follows: UEFA, $ 12.81 – 38.19 million; Conmebol, $ 15.21 million; Concacaf, $ 9.55 million; AFC, $ 9.55 million; CAF, $ 9.55 million, of 3.58 million.
Furthermore, the 'Sporting Performance Pillar' will allocate money on a more meritocratic basis with teams that receive money for won competitions and for continuing to the last phases.
The sporting performance bonuses are: Group Stage – $ 2 million per victory, $ 1 million per draw; Round of 16 – $ 7.5 million; Quarterfinals – $ 13,125 million; Semi -finals – $ 21 million; Runner -Up – $ 30 million; Winner – $ 40 million. This money accumulates as the tournament continues, which means that finalists from Europe will probably earn more than $ 100 million.
But Infantino was hurt to point out that there will also be financing of the CWC tournament to help football initiatives around the world: “In addition to the prize money for the participating teams, there is an unprecedented solidarity investment program where we have a target of an extra worldwide efforts in our through efforts in our thorough inspections in our thorough inspections in our through efforts in our through efforts in our through efforts in our through efforts in our through efforts in our benefits in our benefits in our benefits in our benefits in our thoroughly. Wide refinquishing in our widespread work in our widespread.
“Not only that, but FIFA will not retain any financing for this tournament, because all income will be distributed under club football, nor will it be the FIFAs reserves that will be reserved for global football development via the 211 FIFA memberships.”
