US men's team earns $16m FIFA bonus for last 16; share goes to women's team

The United States men's national team will receive a $16 million FIFA bonus for reaching the last 16 at the 2026 World Cup. Under an existing agreement, a portion of that sum will be shared with the US women's team, provided they qualify for the 2027 Women's World Cup. The arrangement reflects a broader equal-pay deal struck between the players' associations.
