Multiple outlets report FIFA’s distribution of World Cup-related club benefits and present the resulting earnings by club. FIFA awards roughly €215 million to clubs under its Club Benefits Programme, which is tied to participation in the World Cup. According to the compiled figures, AC Milan are the top earner among Serie A clubs from the World Cup cycle, and they also place within the global top 10. Across the broader worldwide ranking, Manchester City finish first overall in the earnings table. The reporting highlights that the payments are calculated through FIFA’s programme framework rather than domestic league performance, and the rankings reflect the combined impact of World Cup involvement for each club. The sources agree on the leadership positions—Milan as the leading Serie A club and Man City as the top club globally—and on the existence of FIFA’s approximately €215 million Club Benefits Programme as the basis for the payments.
