Donald Trump’s security details leaked before the President’s appearance at the FIFA Club World Cup Final between Chelsea FC and Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday.
Trump announced he would be in attendance at the prestigious soccer finale last week, and security procedures for his involvement were somewhat obtained by The Athletic, which offered a glimpse into the measures taken to protect the President of the United States following last year’s assassination attempt.
According to their report, Secret Service officials collaborated with organizers to set up a special route for the POTUS to get to the MetLife Stadium.
It was expected that he would be behind bulletproof glass as an added layer of protection in case someone managed to smuggle a firearm inside the venue.
Donald Trump Expected To Play An Important Role In FIFA Club World Cup
Trump is also expected to participate in the presentation of the Club World Cup trophy at the end of the game, which makes his involvement a bit more complicated.
Meanwhile, the Blues were leading PSG 3-0 through a Cole Palmer brace and a goal from new signing Joao Petro at the time of writing, with Trump likely thoroughly entertained, given the action below him.
It’s also reported that the security protocols for this tournament will be replicated when soccer returns to the United States for the traditional World Cup in 2026.
