Club World Cup 2025 prize money
One of the main reasons why so many giant clubs are taking part in the Club World Cup is due to the mammoth prize pot.
The winning side will earn up to $125million/£97m, which is close to what the Premier League (£176m) and Champions League (£135m) payout to their winners.
Prize money of a colossal £774m ($1bn) will be shared between the 32 clubs, with a £406m ($525m) participation fee shared based on sporting and commercial criteria, and £368m ($475m) shared based on sporting performance.
