Morocco World Cup 2026 Prize Money 15 Million Dollars

Qualified for the round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup, Morocco has already secured a significant FIFA prize pool. The guaranteed amount to the FRMF reaches at least 15 million dollars in sports prize money, even before the Atlas Lions’ next match.

Morocco’s performance at the 2026 World Cup already has a financial impact. By reaching the round of 16, the Atlas Lions ensure the Royal Moroccan Football Federation a minimum sports prize of 15 million dollars, approximately 140 million dirhams. This amount corresponds to the scale set for teams ranked between 9th and 16th place, according to the distribution grid published by FIFA.

This sum does not account for the preparation allocation paid to participating federations. This has been increased to 2.5 million dollars for each of the 48 teams competing. Including this, Morocco is already guaranteed at least 17.5 million dollars, approximately 164 million dirhams.

The amount can still increase. Qualification to the quarterfinals would raise sports prize money to 19 million dollars. A semifinal appearance would guarantee a minimum of 27 million dollars, with 29 million for third place. In case of a final, the prize would reach 33 million dollars, while the 2026 World Cup winner will receive 50 million dollars.

For the FRMF, each stage achieved by the Atlas Lions represents a double challenge: sporting on the field, financial in the accounts. These amounts are paid to federations and do not prejudge internal distribution between the federation, staff, and players. But one thing is already certain: Morocco has transformed its World Cup journey into a major financial return.
