Ligue1+. We will have to get used to this new name in the landscape of French football. The LFP and its commercial subsidiary, LFP Media, presented their platform this Thursday for the broadcast of 8 games per day of the French championship from the next school year, August 15. The express assembly of this new channel is presented rather well since it will be available on the four telecommunications networks: Orange, SFR, Free and Bouygues. The success does not stop there because Dazn will also distribute the content after having signed an agreement until 2029 with the League.
Other streamers are hoped for in the coming days. The negotiations are advancing rather quickly and well according to Nicolas de Tavernost, the new director general of LFP Média, present on the airwaves of RMC Tonight to continue the presentation of the new football media. “”We had a great welcome from the distributors by signing in record timeAssures the manager. “”Everyone signed for multi-distribution“, He continues before admitting to his great regret”With the exception of Canal+ unfortunately.The encrypted channel remains for the moment outside the game, as Maxime Saada explained in late June.

Our slogan will be: “Our football.According to the boss of Canal+, the conditions are not met for his group to be a distributor of Ligue 1 evoking deep disagreements on the price of the subscription (€ 14.99 with a 12 -month commitment, or € 19.99 per month without commitment in more than € 9.99/month without obligation for -26 years).
Of Tavernost reaches the hand in Saada
De Tavernost refuses to lose hope when he insists that clubs will have less income the next two years. “”What has changed is that it was the club chain, we did a lot of work in a month to convince all the distributors.
