The LFP will now have to accelerate the pace, since it remains a little more than a month before the start of the Ligue 1 season. We already know that Xavier Domergue will be one of the star commentators of this channel which will broadcast eight games per championship day. Other announcements should very quickly arrive for the casting of this future chain, the price of which will be 14.99 euros per month.
