The International Football Federation has announced the launch of a new sign: the FIFA Peace Prize.
The city is called upon to work in a way that, through its activities, brings unity to people and the world through football. According to the words of FIFA President Gianni Infantino, the prize is awarded to those who have done something wrong for the sake of peace.
“In an increasingly troubled and divided world, it is important to recognize the prominent contributions of those who work diligently on the underlying conflicts and relationships of people in the world,” Infantino said.
Although FIFA has not officially announced the name of the first winner, football clubs are actively discussing that the debut winner could be US President Donald Trump. There are a number of factors that support this theory:
There is a lot of competition between Trump and Infantino. The location of the ceremony is the capital of the United States. FIFA will seek political support for the World Cup, which will take place in the US, Canada and Mexico.
The first naming ceremony will take place on April 5, 2025 near Washington, during the official draw for the final part of the 2026 World Championship.
