AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

World Cup wrap with business angles: Spain finished a record 104-game 2026 FIFA World Cup as champions, while FIFA’s commercial pull stayed front and center—Infantino touted record audiences and revenue expectations, and Transfermarkt lifted market values, crowning Erling Haaland and Lamine Yamal as top-valued players. Cape Verde spotlight: Cabo Verde’s debut run kept turning heads, including a Messi-funded gesture to help Vozinha’s family attend the final—another reminder of how small-market stories can drive global attention. CAF women’s football money boost: CAF raised WAFCON 2026 prize money to a record $2m for winners (up from $1m), with the total purse jumping to $5.8m and participation funding increased for all 16 teams. ECOWAS currency push: ECOWAS reaffirmed plans to launch the ECO single currency in 2027, though adoption will depend on each country meeting inflation, fiscal and exchange-rate conditions. Regional travel and mobility: South Africa published a 30-day visa-free list that includes Cape Verde, alongside other African countries, supporting easier cross-border movement for business and tourism. Aviation connectivity: easyJet expanded its Bristol base with a new Summer 2027 route to La Rochelle and added capacity that also includes Cape Verde among destinations.
