Summary
Eleven US cities that hosted the 2026 FIFA World Cup are still waiting for promised payouts from FIFA, described as a “legacy contribution” to grow the sport in those cities. The payments were reportedly promised verbally, but not put in writing, and FIFA has since ghosted the cities. At least four cities are still waiting for the $1 million contribution. The lack of a contract has left the cities with little recourse.
