Alert: TV and streaming soccer Options for 2024

(Mod note: This is going to be a work in progress, I figure we needed an updated thread. I've copied over stuff, and tried to stay ahead of things, but I will make mistakes, please let me know where they are)

Some notes: the Brasilero is off Paramount, Fanatiz has signed them, but it will be stadium sound only, as the Brasilero does not have a production company to do a world feed, Ligue 1, Serie A and EFL are expiring. (the new EFL deal will be a LOT stronger with a lot more games)

I'm not going to bet on it. Paramount+ seems to be betting big on soccer, and having Pulisic on Milan probably is a boost to them. I would expect ESPN+ to renew the EFL contract, especially with Wrexham getting more coverage (I'm pretty sure the goal is to get Wrexham to the Championship, where half the games are presented for TV/Streaming)

 

NSR related, but very interesting to see today's NBA news (ESPN and Amazon Prime are on the verge of signing a decade+ deal with the NBA, and it will be peacock/nbc vs TNT for the third (and likely final) package. Will have knock on effects that probably will be part of the negotiations for expiring rights.

 

Thanks Gyro and Roti: I've added them both. Let me know if there's anything else I'm missing.

Looks like there's two bids, one from Paramount+ and a lower one from ESPN+. Serie A had been holding out for $150 million a year, which P+ wasn't going to pay.

With Serie A clubs desperate to wring every dollar out of international rights after home TV rights were basically flat, going to be interesting.

 

ESPN renewed their deal with the FA Cup, which augurs well for their pursuit of renewing the EFL.

 

Fox has the rights for UEFA women's European 2025
