The national federations are expected to distribute the money promised to the 732 players participating, but there is no mechanism in place to guarantee it
FIFA President Gianni Infantino could make no guarantee Wednesday that the member federations will distribute the $30,000 payments promised to every player at the Women’s World Cup.
“We are moving of course in the right direction, we have been consulting with associations, with players, to try to go in the right path,” Infantino said. “We have issued these recommendations, but we have an association of associations. So whatever payments we do, we will go through the associations and then the associations will, of course, make the relevant payments to their own players. We are in touch with all the associations.
The payment is significant for many players: the average annual salary worldwide for women who play professionally is $14,000.
