Revealed: Auckland City’s Club World Cup Stars Are Hairdressers, Teachers, and Factory Workers on $90 Allowance - Unbelievable but True

A remarkable revelation has surfaced about Auckland City FC’s squad at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025—none of the players are full-time professionals.

A source revealed that the New Zealand champions are made up entirely of everyday working individuals, balancing full-time jobs with their football careers. Among the squad are:

  • A school teacher

  • A sheet metal worker

  • A customer service agent at Samsung

  • A factory employee

  • A hardware store owner

  • A hairdresser

  • A sales manager at Coca-Cola

  • And even a painter 

Incredibly, the players do not receive salaries. Instead, they earn a modest travel allowance of just $90, underscoring the team’s amateur roots and community spirit.

Despite competing on football’s biggest global club stage against some of the richest squads in the world, Auckland City's players continue to work day jobs to support themselves—earning them admiration and curiosity from fans across the world.

Fans can now leave their thoughts and reactions in the comments. What do you make of Auckland City's incredible story at the Club World Cup?
