FIFA has announced a unique opportunity for football enthusiasts to purchase authentic pieces of the playing surface from the 2026 World Cup final. For $450 per piece, players and fans will be able to acquire grass cuttings taken from the specific field where the final match is scheduled to take place. These cuttings will be offered as premium collector’s items by the governing body of world football.
According to an announcement relayed by NBC News on FIFA’s official online seller, the purchase allows buyers to own a genuine piece of football history. The grass samples from the venue, identified as the “MetLife” stadium, where the final is set for July 19th, will be permanently preserved. Each purchased piece will be housed in an acrylic display case and will include a USB stick containing a certificate of authenticity.
FIFA has designated these cuttings as a unique collector’s item intended for both players and coaches. The initiative aims to provide a tangible memento from one of the world’s most anticipated sporting events. Fans interested in owning a direct piece of the field where the 2026 World Cup final will be contested can make their purchase through the official FIFA online platform.
