The biggest  cheap fifa 15 coins payment is set, once again, to go to the bedrock Olympic sport of athletics, which is allocated $40 million - $5.2 million less than in the current cycle. The biggest cycle-on-cycle increases, of 28%, have been earmarked for gymnastics and swimming, which will both get $32 million.

The honey-pot that is the World Cup, with its immense revenue-generating capability, means that FIFA is far less dependent on the Olympic Movement money than most other international sports federations.

The cost of the Rio 2016 men's and women's Olympic football tournaments has been budgeted by FIFA at $17 million, with the 2018 Youth Olympics in neighbouring Buenos Aires allocated a further $3 million.

Following changes in 2013, the 28 Summer Olympic sports are now split into five groups, labelled A to E, reflecting the magnitude of their respective contributions to the Games; football, part of whose role is usually to enable communities outside the  actual host-city to get a slice of Olympic action, is in group B.
