🚨🤯 NEW: Prior to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Mexico had agreed to play a friendly against Argentina, who reportedly requested $6 million USD to play the match.
The deal ultimately collapsed after AFA officials allegedly asked the FMF to split the payment across three different bank accounts, raising red flags for the Mexican federation, which decided to walk away from the negotiations rather than become involved in what it considered a suspicious operation.
The controversy surrounding Argentina continues to grow. 🇦🇷💰
