In the early morning of July 14 (Vietnam time), the FIFA Club World Cup 2025TM final between PSG and Chelsea took place at MetLife Stadium (USA). The competition received more attention when US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump appeared in the stands.
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump attended the match at the VIP stands, along with President of the World Football Federation (FIFA) Gianni Infantino. The organizing committee has arranged the FIFA Club World Cup 2025TM championship trophy right in front of President Donald Trump's seat.
The President of the United States stood in a solemn position, then waved his hand to greet all the spectators at MetLife Stadium when the US national anthem was played. He also watched the final, directly awarding medals and the championship trophy to Chelsea players.
Because of the appearance of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump, the security of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025TM final has been tightened at the highest level. In addition, to have the US top in the final, the cost is predicted to be a huge figure.
This is not the first time Donald Trump has appeared at a sports event. In 2019, the US President attracted attention when attending the UFC 244 martial arts event in New York. At that time, the Daily Mail (UK) reported that the appearance of Mr. Donald Trump cost about 252,567 USD, of which 224,212 USD was the hotel cost of the agents.
The cost of travel for security forces is also not small, estimated at about 22,005 USD. Not stopping there, the government also had to spend an additional $6,350 to set up security tents around Trump Tower where President Donald Trump was staying after the event.
Marca (Spain) had predicted that if the US President attended the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final, the cost of security work would likely be equivalent to or even exceed the level in 2019.
