The world's eyes will be on the "New York New Jersey" stadium next Sunday, not only to follow the golden football battle between Spain and Argentina, but to witness the biggest financial event in football history.

For the first time since the launch of the World Cup in 1930, the market value of the final match breaks the 2 billion euro barrier (equivalent to 2.35 billion dollars).

According to Transfermarkt, the market value of the Spanish team is 1.22 billion euros, while the market value of the Argentine team is 807 million euros, meaning the market value of the match exceeds the 2 billion euro barrier.

It is noted that the previous edition's final between France and Argentina had a market value of 1.67 billion euros, a difference of more than 360 million euros less than the market value of the 2026 edition's final.
