The 2025 Club World Cup final is here, and the football world comes to a standstill to witness a clash of titans: Chelsea vs PSG
This Sunday, July 13, the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey will be the stage where not only the best club on the planet will be decided, but also the one that will take home the highest prize money ever awarded by FIFA in a club competition.

A luxury final in New Jersey
MetLife Stadium, with a capacity of more than 82,000 spectators, will witness a historic final. Chelsea, with a young and dynamic squad, will face Paris Saint-Germain, a mature team hungry for international titles. Both teams have had an impeccable tournament, and now they are playing for glory and a fortune.
How much money will the champion earn?
FIFA has earmarked $50 million for the team that wins the 2025 Club World Cup.
This figure represents an all-time record in the history of FIFA club competitions, far surpassing the prize money of previous tournaments such as the Champions League or the Copa Libertadores.
The runner-up, that is, the team that loses the final between Chelsea and PSG, will take home $40 million, an equally impressive figure that reflects the new economic order of global soccer.
More than a trophy: a multi-million dollar business
The 2025 Club World Cup is not only a sporting showcase, but also an event with a high financial impact. In total, FIFA has earmarked more than $2 billion in prize money for all participating teams, thanks to new agreements with global sponsors such as Apple and Visit Saudi, as well as multi-million dollar television contracts.
This new model of financial distribution seeks to reward both sporting performance and the commercial value of the clubs. In the case of Chelsea and PSG, both belong to UEFA, which guarantees them additional income from participation criteria, which can range from $12.8 million to $38.2 million.
Chelsea vs PSG: Two models of success
This final pits two giants of modern football, but with different philosophies. Chelsea, following its acquisition by a US consortium, has opted for a strategy of young signings and medium-term development. Its path to the final has been a demonstration of balance between emerging talent and tactical solidity.
In contrast, PSG arrives with a consolidated squad, backed by more than a decade of Qatari investment. After winning the Champions League in 2025, the Parisian club is looking to close the cycle with the world title, consolidating its status as a global powerhouse.
An award that redefines club football
The winner of this final will not only lift the most prestigious trophy in club football, but will also receive a financial reward that even exceeds what Manchester City received for winning the Champions League in 2023.
This new Club World Cup marks a turning point: more teams, more spectacle and, above all, more money. FIFA has made it clear that this competition is now the diamond in the soccer calendar.
Chelsea and PSG are not only fighting for sporting glory, but also for a $50 million prize that could transform their finances. The final of the 2025 Club World Cup promises to be an unforgettable spectacle, both on and off the pitch.
Who will take home the title and the biggest check in club soccer history? The world will find out this Sunday in New Jersey.
