It became known how much the 2026 World Cup finalists earned

The Spain national team absolutely deservedly won the World Cup. Luis de la Fuente's team dominated throughout the tournament and finally beat Argentina with the genius Messi in the final thanks to Ferran Torres' goal in extra time!

Now the Spaniards are in for nationwide love, triumphant parades and the status of national heroes. However, along with the main football trophy on the planet, the team will bring home a substantial cash prize as well.

FIFA has allocated a record sum of $727 million for the prize money for the 2026 World Cup. And the largest part of this money, logically, will go to Spain!

FIFA will pay the Spaniards $50 million for winning the 2026 World Cup. The de la Fuente team will receive another $1.5 million for preparation for the tournament. In total — $51.5 million.

Of course, all this money will not go directly to the players' bank accounts. FIFA will transfer the amount to the Spanish Football Federation, which will then distribute part of the funds among the players, coaching staff and other national team employees in accordance with internal agreements.

However, there is no doubt that the new world champions will not be left without substantial bonuses.

The scale of this amount is especially noticeable against the earnings of other 2026 World Cup participants. Thus, the tournament's silver medalist Argentina earned $34.5 million. England, which won bronze, received $30.5 million, and France, which took fourth place, received $28.5 million.
