World Champions

The modern FIFA World Cup™ Trophy was first awarded at the 1974 finals in Germany and replaced the old Jules Rimet Cup that Brazil had kept as reward for winning their third world crown at Mexico 1970.

The Sculptor of the Trophy

The Father's Cup
Born in Milan, in 1921, Silvio Gazzaniga is the artist who designed and created the FIFA World Cup Trophy after its predecessor, the Jules Rimet Cup, was won outright by Brazil in 1970.
