CAN 2025: A historic jackpot awaits the future champion, here are the prizes

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has decided to make a strong move for the Moroccan edition. With a record overall envelope of $32 million, the competition promises a shower of gold on the participants, with the winner walking away with a check never seen before.

The stakes will not only be sporting on the pitches of the Kingdom. The governing body of African football has validated a new, particularly generous remuneration policy for the TotalEnergies CAN Morocco 2025. The total budget allocated to the prizes amounts to $32 million, confirming CAF’s desire to significantly revalue the status of the continental competition.

The grand winner of the tournament will hit the jackpot with a prize of $7 million, and we hope it will be Morocco. This amount marks a clear increase compared to the 2023 edition, where the champion had received €5 million. The unfortunate finalist will not be left behind and will receive $4 million for their run.

This financial windfall will be allocated proportionally to the progress of each team. The semi-finalists are assured of receiving $2.5 million, while the quarter-finalists will receive $1.3 million. The scale also provides for $800,000 for the nations reaching the round of 16. Even the teams eliminated in the group stage will leave with an allocation: $700,000 for the third-placed teams in the groups and $500,000 for the last-placed teams.
