“President Trump will be at the final. He loves soccer. In his first term as President, there was a soccer goal in the White House garden,” Infantino revealed.
“President Trump is the President of the U.S., one of the host countries for the World Cup, and he embraced the Club World Cup immediately. Events like these are huge, and you can’t stage tournaments like this without his support.”
Trump’s presence adds a high-profile political dimension to what is already set to be a monumental clash between two European football giants. With the U.S. playing a co-hosting role in the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, his involvement continues to signal growing American interest in global football events.
The final is expected to draw massive international attention, and Trump’s attendance further underscores the global reach and political significance of the tournament.
