After legal dispute
German league must retender TV rights
The German Football League (DFL) will repeat the auction for the media rights to the Bundesliga from November 25!
The tender will cover all live and highlight rights packages on TV for the Bundesliga, Bundesliga 2, the relegation and the Super Cup in the 2025/2026 to 2028/2029 seasons, as announced by the DFL. The repetition of the auction was necessary following a ruling by the German Institution of Arbitration (DIS).
The DIS had partially ruled in favor of the streaming service DAZN in a legal dispute with the DFL.
The loser of the decision was pay-TV broadcaster Sky, which, according to information from the German Press Agency, had won the most important package of 196 live matches and lost out again as a result of the ruling. DAZN had reportedly offered around 400 million euros per year for the package - i.e. around 1.6 billion euros for the four-year rights period.
Calculated over this four-year period, the offer is said to have been around 320 million euros higher than that of the competition.
