DAZN Takes Champions League Rights In Germany From Sky Deutschland

DAZN has won the bidding rights to the Champions League in Germany for the three seasons beginning from the 2021/22 season.

Sky Germany’s CEO, Carsten Schmidt, told BILD that they have lost the rights through the tender process, saying:

“In the tendering process that has just been completed, we have not been able to agree on a continuation of the cooperation after about 20 years of partnership with Uefa.

“We have an economically clear and responsible view on the value of sports rights, however, even in the interests of our customers, we were not prepared to go beyond the high value that we attach to this right.”
