Zapping Our Mondial Hugo Lloris: The great dates in blue
This is the worrying subject of recent months in France. With the end of the Amazon contract, the Professional Football League had to find new players to broadcast Ligue 1 and Ligue 2. And after endless discussions, it was ultimately the DAZN platform which recovered almost entirety of Ligue 1 over the period 2024-2029 for a sum significantly lower than what was hoped: 500 million euros, enough to cause big losses for the French clubs to whom the famous billion had been promised.
“We are losing 50 million euros this season”
At the head of the gondola, we find Paris Saint-Germain, who inevitably received a nice share of the pie. Newly appointed general manager, Victoriano Melero, spoke on this subject in the columns of the newspaper The Parisian when mentioning the amount of the loss: “We are losing 50 million euros this season. The impact is real, especially compared to our European competitors. It’s up to us to find how to compensate for this shortfall. But despite everything, our income will continue to increase. Particularly thanks to new competitions“, he detailed. Nothing very reassuring all the same.
To summarize
With TV rights falling in France, Paris Saint-Germain was inevitably impacted. New general manager Victoriano Melero explained that the capital club had lost around 50 million euros.
