DAZN to show full Ligue 1 in Spain from 13 May | OneFootball

DAZN will broadcast Ligue 1 in Spain from 13 May, launching with Lens v PSG at 21:00.

According to L'Équipe, LFP Media has agreed a multi-year deal with DAZN to show every match each round, with at least two games in Spanish, the first full coverage since the 2017-2018 season.

In Spain, DAZN already carries part of La Liga, 5 matches per matchday, as well as the Premier League, Serie A, the Bundesliga, Formula 1 and MotoGP.

Ligue 1 is now available in 216 territories through 51 international partners.

PSG and beIN Media Group president Nasser al-Khelaïfi recently criticised LFP Media at an LFP board meeting for not pushing harder on international rights. The company responded that it generated 126 million euros last season and 137 million euros this season, around 80% more than under beIN, which previously handled international sales.

In Spain, beIN had sold the rights to a distributor that went out of business after failing to place Ligue 1 with a broadcaster. LFP Media had said it was close to a three-year deal for Spain, which has now been concluded with DAZN.
