He and FIFA president Gianni Infantino are close allies, and Infantino had made it clear that he thought Trump should have won the Nobel for his efforts to broker a ceasefire in Gaza.
Trump told reporters upon arriving at the Kennedy Center that he didn't know whether he was going to get the award, and added: "I don't need prizes. I just want to save lives."
FIFA has described the prize as one that rewards "individuals who have taken exceptional and extraordinary actions for peace and by doing so have united people across the world."
This award will never be handed out or mentioned by FIFA ever again.
