xwhatsappmailcopy-link

With approximately one year left in the current rights cycle, DFL Sports Enterprises today announced its scheduled tender for international media rights of the Bundesliga in over 50 European territories. The League Association has appointed the 100% subsidiary of DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga with the task of awarding rights for seasons 2017/18 to 2020/21 over the coming weeks.

The tender process will not include the Bundesliga’s domestic media rights for Germany, which will be awarded by DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga in a separate tender process. There is no overlap between the two processes in terms of content or territories included.

The rights on offer include every game of the Bundesliga, Bundesliga 2, the relegation play-offs and the Supercup. Rights will be offered on a territorially exclusive basis. In addition, interested parties will also have the opportunity to bid for a pan-European package.

As of now all interested parties may complete their registration for the tender process using an English-language form available online (www.bundesliga.com/tender). All parties admitted to the tender process will receive further documents beginning on February 12th, 2016. The exact scope of the media rights on offer will be announced shortly, as will the deadline for the submission of first bids.
