Corinthians could receive millionaire value with Memphis in the World Cup

Corinthians has a representative for the 2026 World Cup: Memphis Depay, who will defend the Netherlands team. FIFA will even pay a daily fee to the club for the striker's participation in the competition.

Each day of the World Cup will yield approximately 11 thousand dollars (R$ 56.6 thousand) to the black and white coffers - a daily figure made available by the entity to the clubs of each participating athlete.

Therefore, if the Netherlands reaches the final of the 2026 World Cup and participates in the full 39 days of the tournament, Memphis Depay's call-up will yield Corinthians 429 thousand dollars (R$ 2.2 million).

According to FIFA, 250 million dollars (R$ 1.2 billion at current prices) will be distributed among the clubs that will have players in the main national team competition on the planet. The final numbers will only be confirmed after the World Cup.

The Brazilian club that will receive the most benefit is Flamengo, which has nine squads for the 2026 World Cup - R$513,000 per day. Palmeiras appears second on the list, with seven athletes and a projection of R$ 399 thousand per day.
