Serie A clubs voted to accept a five-year domestic broadcast deal. Here are the winners and losers.
After four months of negotiations, a joint bid from DAZN and Sky Italia for Serie A’s domestic broadcast rights has been green-lighted by 17 of the league’s 20 clubs. The deal is reportedly worth a combined €4.77B and will cover five seasons from 2024-25 to 2028-29.
With less than eight months to go before the 2024-25 season begins, and with Lega Serie A more desperate by the day, the two sports media companies’ determination to bargain until the last possible minute has paid off. DAZN is the major player and is said to have proposed $744M (€700M) minimum in revenue per season for the Italian top flight, while Sky Italia’s coverage will inject another €200M ($213M) throughout each of the five campaigns.
