Explosion in ticketing and hospitality revenue goes along with a desire by Fifa to recoup lost TV income in future deals

Trump calls on FIFA to award the 2038 World Cup exclusively to the US, a move that could boost prediction markets, fan tokens, and crypto sports platforms.

The hosting rights for the next two men’s World Cups have already been decided but Trump said he would pitch his ‘great idea’ to Fifa president Gianni Infantino

Trump played a significant role in the original awarding of the 2026 tournament to the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

With a wartime host nation, eye-watering ticket prices and a ban overturned after a call from the White House, the 2026 tournament tested FIFA like no other.

The United States’s time as co-host of the 2026 World Cup has come to a close.
