Donald Trump not only muscled in on Chelsea's celebrations after the Club World Cup final. He apparently got to keep the real trophy.

When Trump and FIFA President Gianni Infantino were finished distributing championship medals to the winning team, Trump was left with one in his hand. Rather than hand it back, the president stashed it in the inside pocket of his suit jacket, drawing criticism from viewers.

On July 16, 2025, a viral video claimed to show FIFA President Gianni Infantino criticizing U.S. President Donald Trump for taking the Club World Cup trophy for himself. In the summer of 2025, the United States hosted the FIFA Club World Cup, with Trump attending the final match in New Jersey on July 13.
