It's not yet official, but it's just like: Dazn will no longer be the Ligue 1 broadcaster next season. After only a year of collaboration, the British group and the professional football league agreed that their agreement, which focused on the retransmission of eight matches per day against a check for 400 million euros per season over the period 2024-2029, was to be broken this summer.
A divorce that obliges the LFP, in full restructuring, to find a new plan before the resumption of the championship, in August. To date, the most likely scenario would be the creation of a 100% Ligue 1 channel by the body, which would try to convince several partners like Canal+ or Warner Bros Discovery to distribute it on their platform. What make those who, last year, subscribed to Dazn last year.
Especially since according to The teamthey cannot currently break their commitment. The future ex-diaper of Ligue 1 would remain deaf to all termination requests because it would always discuss with LFP Media, the Commercial Company of the League, on the future of the dissemination of the elite. “We understand the concern of our subscribers, whose satisfaction is essential in our eyes”said a Dazn spokesperson.

“We will not fail to keep them immediately informed as soon as we have more information to share with them for the 2025-2026 season”he said. An approach that puts a stone Ménès out of her who, on X, has dropped: “Despite the dissemination judgment, no reimbursement policy implemented by Dazn for those who have taken a 12 -month subscription. That we quickly get rid of these M*RDES. »»
If the British group abandons Ligue 1, it continues to offer sport to its subscribers, which can currently follow the dam between Metz and Reims (also available on BeIN Sports), the final phase of Betclic Elite in basketball as well as PFL and Glory Kick-Boxing fights. A catalog that also includes the next FIFA club World Cup, whose matches will be broadcast for free.
