FIFA Club World Cup Prize Money: PSG Got Rs 918 Crore, Chelsea Took Home...
FIFA had allocated a $1 billion prize pool for the inaugural edition of the 32-team tournament.
Cole Palmer fired a brace and provided an assist as Chelsea stunned Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 in the final of FIFA Club World Cup 2025 last week at the Metlife Stadium, New Jersey, United States. Palmer opened the scoring midway through the first half and struck again to make it two on the half-hour mark, before taking advantage of passive defending to set up Joao Pedro for the third on 43 minutes. PSG's Portuguese midfielder Joao Neves was shown red following a VAR review four minutes from the end for pulling Marc Cucurella by the hair off the ball.

European teams, including finalists Chelsea and PSG, received higher shares due to their higher sporting and commercial rankings.
