10. That's the "Club" World Cup, NOT the full scale World Cup

Sure there will be people travelling to the US for it, but nowhere near the scale of people trying to come next year for the full World Cup. It is still a legitimate concern as to whether anything will happen.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_FIFA_Club_World_Cup

Initially, prices for matches at the tournament were set very high compared to tournaments such as the World Cup and UEFA Euros with some tickets costing as much as $2,200 for the final due to dynamic pricing. On February 10, 2025, it was reported that FIFA had cut the prices of tickets due to low interest, as the prices for the cheapest tickets for the semi-finals and final had dropped to around $140 and $300, respectively.[161][162] Despite the prices being lowered, FIFA charged a 10% cancellation fee for those who wanted to exchange their tickets.[
