Manchester United are expected to benefit from a FIFA allocation of £263.6 million for clubs sending players to the World Cup, which will take place this summer in the US, Canada, and Mexico.
United will be well-represented at the competition, which begins next week. Several of their players are looking to make history with their countries on the biggest stage of all.
The players’ participation in the World Cup will benefit United financially. Two years ago, FIFA raised funding for their club benefits package, which includes World Cup qualifying matches, the subsequent play-off matches, and the tournament itself.
Clubs will get daily compensation for each participating player under FIFA’s club benefit program.

They will start getting paid when players are released for international duty and continuing until their last game in the competition; they are not required to play on the field.
According to Manchester Evening News, although FIFA has not disclosed the daily fee for this summer’s World Cup, clubs received $10,950 (£8,131) a day during the most recent World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This amount can be used to estimate how much United will earn this summer.
