NFF Expects 19M Kroner World Cup Surplus

Norges Fotballforbud projects a 19 million kroner surplus from the football World Cup, based on Fifa's 119 million kroner in estimated income.

Norges Fotballforbud has set a budget showing a moderate surplus of 19 million kroner for the football World Cup. The total income from Fifa is estimated at 119 million kroner, with Fifa having recently increased prize payments by 15%.

While the budget is clear, there remains uncertainty around costs, particularly travel, accommodation, and taxes in the US. "The biggest uncertainty is related to taxes," said NFF's general secretary Karl-Petter Løken, noting they expect final tax answers only after the tournament concludes. lebandit.lat
