This will be the first time in the history of FIFA competitions that the organization will present rings to the tournament winners, in addition to the usual gold medals and the World Cup trophy, as announced by FIFA in a statement on Thursday.
A total of 2,026 rings will be crafted in honor of this year's edition, all of which will be individually numbered.
Of the 2,026 rings, 30 will be given to the winning team and the remaining 1,996 rings will be put on sale by FIFA.
