Bundesliga era breaks: DAZN takes over Saturday conference!

In the millions of poker for the TV rights of the German Bundesliga, there are groundbreaking changes for seasons 2025/26 to 2028/29. According to information from Today. This marks the end of Sky’s control over these crucial transmission for fans, which in the past was an integral part of the football experience. In addition to the conference, DAZN will also broadcast the games on Sunday, while Sky has qualified for package B, which includes 196 games and shows the individual games on Friday and Saturday.

The auction for media rights was exposed to a previous dispute between DAZN and German Football League (DFL) in April. DAZN had called for a significant bank guarantee that should be presented within 24 hours, which the providers considered unfair. An arbitration award meant that the auction had to be repeated, and now the DFL plans to announce the results on December 5th.

future income and uncertainties

A central question remains the amount of future income for the Bundesliga clubs. You will currently receive around 1.1 billion euros per season, a sum that, according to Bayern Munich, would already be a success in order to remain competitive in an international comparison, especially for the English Premier League. This only receives almost two billion euros from national media proceeds. However, the free TV rights, including the future of the ARD sports show, will only be awarded in the coming days, which still gives the fans and the clubs a few uncertainties.
