About this deal

Though the Jules Rimet Trophy survived the World War unscathed, it nearly disappeared after being stolen ahead of the 1966 World Cup in England - the first time the tournament was being held at football’s spiritual home. Overall, Brazil is the most prosperous nation with five World Cup triumphs , followed by Germany and Italy with four each. The Reliance World Cup and Wills World Cup were crafted by Amit Pabu Wal of Jaipur who has also made the world's largest gold trophy, the most expensive trophy in world history, as well as the T20 World Cup. [10] Status [ edit ] On March 20, 1966, the trophy disappeared from its display cabinet while a Sunday church service was being conducted in another part of the building. The thief reportedly never touched rare stamps, estimated to have been worth over three million Pounds at the time, and fled with just the trophy, which at the time was valued at 30,000 Pounds.

The old trophy’s exciting journey didn’t end there as it ended up being stolen on a couple of occasions. The first incident took place in England ahead of the 1966 World Cup. The Jules Rimet Trophy was put on a public exhibition at Westminster Central Hall on 20 March 1966, when the theft took place. Before the 2018 tournament, over 220,000 people across Russia and the world had the canoe to see the iconic trophy with their own eyes. I was fortunate to see it myself in 2018 while in Phuket, Thailand. There were gold plates attached to each of the four sides of the base, on which the winning countries’ names were engraved after each edition. The Jules Rimet Trophy. (Getty Images)

The design sees arching lines from the base spiral up and forms the base for a golden replica of the world. The trophy is hollow from the inside.

Following the retirement of the Jules Rimet Trophy, FIFA needed a new cup. The soccer’s governing body invited proposals and received submissions from fifty-three sculptors from seven different countries. Eventually, Italian artist Silvio Gazzaniga’s design was selected by FIFA as their new World Cup trophy.But being one of the most recognisable sporting symbols in the globe and consequently, the high value associated with it has also brought its fair share of unwanted attention to the iconic piece of silverware. This has made the FIFA World Cup trophy the centrepiece of some intriguing plots off the field as well. FIFA World Cup trophy iterations Over the past four weeks, players from 32 nations dreamed of getting their hands on global football's most iconic piece of silverware and Argentina earned it when they survived a penalty shootout against France following a thrilling 3-3 draw.

Over the years, there have been two different iterations or designs of the football World Cup trophy. The FIFA World Cup trophy, since its inception, has been the object of desire for every football-playing nation in the world, more than 200 of them currently, and their epic struggles on the field to win it has produced some memorable moments. World Rugby, attempting to provide some clarity, said the replica versions were "two-thirds the size" – though that's clearly not true of the 1987 version. The current trophy that will be used for 2022 — known simply as the FIFA World Cup Trophy — is not actually the original award. It is the second version of the prize, having replaced the Jules Rimet Trophy ahead of the 1974 World Cup.The Jules Rimet Trophy had had quite a fascinating history. When World War II broke out, Italy was the current world champion. So Ottorino Barassi, who was vice-President of FIFA and President of Italy’s football federation, took it upon himself to hide the trophy from the clutches of the Nazis. Barassi hid the trophy in a shoebox under his bed while the war raged in most of Europe. The original trophy is currently being kept at the FIFA World Football Museum in Zurich, Switzerland. 2022 World Cup: A memorable year for Indians
