Club World Cup: Bavaria and BVB collect so much at the tournament

So far, everything has been going according to plan for the Bundesliga clubs at the FIFA Club World Championship in the USA. FC Bayern Munich lost the last group game against Benfica Lisbon (0-1) with a B-Elf, but the Munich’s round of 16 was already determined.

Borussia Dortmund has also moved into the round of the last 16 teams. BVB won its last game in Group F 1-0 against the South Korean club Ulsan HD FC.

Each of these victories brings Bavaria and Dortmund money. Both clubs have already cashed in at the club World Cup-and could now generate significantly more income.

Before Kimmich, Kane and Co. entered the ball at all, FC Bayern had already secured around $ 30 million. Media such as the “kicker” report that the record champion is as high. Due to the victories against Auckland City (10: 0) and the Boca Juniors (2: 1), two million were added.

The Munich team missed another victory bonus due to the bankruptcy against Benfica – manageable for FCB. A consolation: The round of 16 rinse 7.5 million into the coffers. Due to the missed group victory, Bayern also did not allow any income to go through the rags. There is no separate premium of FIFA for this.

The German champion has already taken $ 41.5 million at the club World Cup due to the group phase. According to the current course (as of June 26, 2025), this is the equivalent of around $ 35.4 million.

Dortmund is said to have received approximately $ 23.5 million in the club World Cup, as various media report. Two victories and a draw that brings one million in the tournament gave the BVB a further five million dollars. The Borussia, like the Munich residents, gave the round of 16 another 7.5 million euros.

So far, the black and yellow have received around $ 36 million, which corresponds to around 30.7 million euros according to the current price.

Both clubs have already sagged the premium for the round of 16. The further you will come, the more money you are entitled to – a logical consequence in the modern football business. The Bayern are next to the Brazilian Association Flamengo (Sunday, 10 p.m. CEST) and BVB on CF Monterrey from Mexico (Wednesday, 3 a.m. CEST).

If the Bundesliga teams win these games, they each receive $ 13.125 million from FIFA for moving into the quarter-finals. If Bayern and Dortmund make it into the semi -finals, both wave 21 million. Finalists have another 30 million, the winner would also receive 10 million on top, a total of $ 40 million.

If one of the German clubs succeeds in winning the club World Cup, a total of over $ 100 million waves through the tournament. FC Bayern would then be estimated to have 115.625 million and Borussia Dortmund to 110.125 million.

All premiums and prize money are anchored in the FIFA Club World Championship. These are coordinated with important interest groups such as the European Club Association (ECA), the World Football Association assures.

Accordingly, the winner of the club World Cup is up to $ 125 million. The FIFA distributes a total prize money of one billion US dollars to the 32 participating clubs-but not entirely even. European clubs receive a larger part of the cake. The arrival fee varies depending on the continent and club. Here is an overview:

FIFA has provided the price range for the European continent on its website. “Definitely due to a maneuvering based on sporty and commercial criteria,” is at the bottom. Means: The more attractive the club is for the World Association, the more coal.

Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are among the top earners of the tournament. If the club World Cup continues to be successful for the Bundesliga clubs, you could ultimately scratch the upper limit of the prize money.
