FIFA reveals Club World Cup payout, Flamengo set for millions

How much will FIFA pay clubs per day?

Flamengo had nine players called up by their national teams for the 2026 World Cup. As compensation for their absences, FIFA confirmed it will pay clubs five thousand dollars (R$ 25.7 thousand) per day for each called-up player.

It is worth noting that this amount is lower than at the 2022 World Cup, when FIFA paid clubs R$ 50 thousand per day. Thus, with nine players called up for the tournament, Flamengo will receive R$ 231.3 thousand per day. The information comes from ‘Uol’.

In addition, considering only the World Cup group stage, Flamengo will receive around 1.44 million dollars (R$ 7.4 million). Finally, that amount could increase if Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Uruguay advance to the knockout stage.

Which Flamengo players were called up for the World Cup?

Four Flamengo players were called up by Carlo Ancelotti to represent the Brazil national team: Danilo, Alex Sandro, Léo Pereira, and Lucas Paquetá. In addition, Uruguay called up Arrascaeta, De La Cruz, and Varela, while Colombia has Jorge Carrascal. Finally, Gonzalo Plata is available for Ecuador.

Is Flamengo the Brazilian club with the most players called up for the World Cup?

Yes! With nine players at the World Cup, Flamengo is the Brazilian club with the most call-ups for the global tournament. Right behind the Rubro-Negro, Palmeiras, Atlético-MG, Grêmio, and Internacional round out the top 5.

Flamengo: 9 called up Palmeiras: 7 called up Atlético-MG: 4 called up Grêmio: 2 called up Internacional: 2 called up Botafogo, Corinthians, Santos, São Paulo, Fluminense, Vasco, Athletico-PR, and Bragantino: 1 called up

What is Flamengo’s plan?

At the moment, the Flamengo squad is enjoying a vacation due to the break in the schedule caused by the World Cup. Mengão’s next match in 2026 is scheduled for July 22, against Chapecoense, in the 19th round of the Brasileirão.

Before that, however, Flamengo will hold a mid-season training camp in Portugal, including three friendlies. In Portuguese territory, the Rubro-Negro will face Falkirk (SCO), Birmingham (ENG), and Benfica (POR).
