FIFA foresees almost 50-per-cent rise in income for 2026 World Cup
FIFA expects to earn US$11-billion through 2026 with a 48-team men’s World Cup in North America set to deliver a big rise in revenue.
There is also uncertainty over exactly how many games will be played – and sold to broadcasters – at the 48-team World Cup. The new format was agreed to help accelerate development of soccer in countries which rarely qualify for the World Cup. That was despite FIFA’s own research advising that the highest quality games would be delivered by the current 32-team format used since 1998.
