FIFA pays record amounts to clubs whose players participate in the World Cup.

The International Football Federation (FIFA) has finalized a large-scale payment package for teams whose players participate in the 2026 World Cup.

FIFA has significantly increased compensation payments to clubs.

According to COPE , clubs are expected to receive more than $11,000 per player per day throughout the tournament. This is a significant financial support measure given the expansion of the 2026 World Cup, which will directly impact the schedules and resources of professional clubs.

With the 2026 World Cup lasting 38 days, the total amount FIFA will have to pay to participating teams will reach a record high. FIFA previously spent $209 million on this compensation program for the 2022 World Cup. For the 2026 and 2023 World Cups, the budget will increase to a record $355 million , or approximately 70%.

One notable new feature is the allocation of budget funds. Payments not only apply to the club currently holding the player's contract, but are also shared with the teams that receive the player on loan.

FIFA's move aims to ensure fair treatment for all parties directly involved in managing and caring for players before and during the event.

FIFA's increase in compensation is the result of negotiation efforts aimed at easing the pressure on clubs that have to release players for national teams for extended periods and face the risk of injury to key players.
