The platform will also provide complete coverage of the Coppa Italia and the Supercoppa Italiana in France, Monaco, and Andorra.“DAZN is delighted with this new partnership with the French Professional Football League (or LFP Media). I thank the LFP, LFP Media, Nicolas de Tavernost, and all the clubs for the quality of our discussions and for their trust. This agreement is fully in line with our ambition to make the best sports content accessible to our subscribers and strengthens our position as a long-term partner of French football. DAZN is continuing and accelerating its growth in France, as demonstrated by the acquisition of full broadcasting rights for Serie A and Italian football starting next season,” commented Brice Daumin, CEO of DAZN France.
