Serie A rights awarded until 2029: DAZN and Sky get an encore


26 October 2023

DAZN and Sky have renewed their current coverage of Serie A until 2029, at a slightly lower price and with the security of a five-year contract. The ‘league channel’ DTC option was rejected by clubs.

With bids expected soon in France and the UK, DAZN seems determined to become the dominant football broadcaster in Europe.

The Italian auction outcome confirms the real-term erosion of the value of football rights across Europe, but also a more mature approach from the league.
