US President Donald Trump will present the World Cup trophy to the winning team at the final, alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino, according to Israeli media. The report, attributed to a single source, says this is the first time a sitting US president will perform the ceremony.
According to a report relayed by Israeli media (N12), US President Donald Trump will present the World Cup trophy at the final match, alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino. The report states this marks the first time a sitting US president will hold the ceremony, which is scheduled for July 19 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The report is attributed to a single source — a Talksport report referenced by N12. The Zioneer previously reported on June 16 that Trump would be permitted to lift the trophy alongside the winning team; the latest report confirms his role in presenting it, though the exact protocol remains unclarified. Trump has confirmed he will attend the World Cup, though his attendance at earlier matches has not been consistent — he skipped the opener on June 12 due to a scheduling conflict.
