FIFA to Compensate Clubs €9,000 Per Player Per Day at 2026 World Cup
FIFA plans a major compensation scheme for clubs whose players feature at the 2026 World Cup. Clubs will receive over €9,000 for each player per day throughout the 38-day tournament. Payments cover both parent clubs and teams where players are on loan. The expanded 48-team format across the United States, Canada and Mexico means players will be away longer than ever. FIFA’s package aims to ease fixture congestion worries and reward clubs for releasing talent at football’s biggest event.
