• This amount represents a huge financial boost for the football federation, capable of covering a large part of preparation costs for the next stage

The curtain officially fell on the 2025 Arab Cup in Doha after an exhilarating finale at Lusail Stadium, where Morocco was crowned champion following a hard-fought 3-2 victory over their Jordanian rivals in a match worthy of the Arab football reputation.

“Million-dollar” tournament… the most expensive in history

This edition was not only technically remarkable but also broke financial records, with total prize money reaching $36.5 million, making it the most lucrative regional tournament in history, surpassing long-standing continental competitions such as:

• Africa Cup of Nations: $32 million

• Asia Cup 2024: $14.8 million

Jordan’s “Nashama” treasury flourishes

In financial terms, the Jordanian national team earned an unprecedented windfall after finishing as runners-up in the 2025 Arab Cup. According to the organizing committee, the prize of $4.3 million (approximately 3,050,000 Jordanian dinars) will enter the Jordan Football Federation’s treasury.

This sum (over 3 million dinars) provides a significant economic boost for the federation, covering a large portion of preparation expenses for the next phase and enhancing the value of the rewards players will receive for their historic achievement.
