Manchester City would top the earning charts, as they did at the 2018 and 2022 tournaments, with an estimated $4.4 million (R72.4 million) payout.

FIFA pays clubs based on how many days each of their players are at the tournament, with clubs receiving $5,000 (approximately R82,000) per day, per player.

Masandawana are estimated to be 41st on the list, while the Sea Robbers ranked 42nd, with both teams receiving $1.4 million (R23 million), as both teams had eight players in the Bafana Bafana squad.
