Saudi Arabia 2034 $600 billion

And now the World Cup will have 48 teams, which means more matches, which means more weeks of the tournament, which means more money. I remember the idea of the World Cup occurring every two years being floated around and it wouldn’t surprise me if that ends up happening. I feel like greed is going to end up killing this sport, especially the competitiveness of it

So how were they making so much more money in non WC years prior to 2014?

what happened in 2011-2013 vs. 2015-2017 that made those gap years much less profitable for them?

wow wc 2016 made no money at all

Qatar WC proved me wrong and was the best WC in recent memory but a winter World Cup has given rise number of injuries so if FIFA Keeps off making money they have no motivation to change, this winter work cup may become more common.

So, the most controversal ones, you know people want to boykott where the best by far revenue wise?

Remember.

They are a NON-PROFIT ORGANISATION.

This money is for water leaks in his headquarters.

The cash must flow.

i do the same with f1

But revenue normally doesn’t include operating costs right?

Wonder how much of that money has been bribe.

Remember when people say Qatar WC will be boycotted and no one will watch it. Welp!

We all know the next step they are gonna try to take.

2020 was obviously a write-off year, but it’s striking how poorly it did 2015-2017. Maybe it has to do with all the trials.
