Viasat has acquired the rights to Serie A and La Liga, as reported to the Sport Express.
After the bidding of Premier League rights now started is the channel’s coup to secure top football in its range.
– I do not comment on the rights that we have not, says Viasat’s sports director Per Nunstedt.
With the Champions League and Premier League rights that trump card, Viasat has been Sweden’s most prominent actor in international top football. Now it has secured up heavy football rights in the future.
According to Sportexpressen Viasat has bought the rights to both series A and La Liga. This is because the television network has competition of Discovery Networks Sweden and C More about the rights to the Premier League next season.
– I do not comment Rights, says Viasat’s sports director Per Nunstedt to Sport Express.
So nothing is clear with Serie A and La Liga?
– As said: I will not comment any rights that we have.
Viasat contracts for Premier League rights expire after the current season, and according to data to Sportexpressen the bidding is already underway. Last Thursday began, with three operators may submit their bids for the right, which applies to all platforms. If they are within 20 percent of each other, you move on to the next bidding round.
But that negotiations would last is nothing Emir Osman Begovic, Sports Director at Discovery Networks Sweden, want to confirm.
– I do not want to comment on something. I will not comment any rights we have – unfortunately, he says.
With the acquisitions of Serie A and La Liga intends Viasat to cover up their offerings – and also broadcast leagues – in case you lose rights to Premier League . If, however, retains the rights to the Premier League next season, it is possible to not broadcast La Liga and Serie A.
The Swedish TV audience has missed the first two rounds of the Italian Serie A and Spanish La Liga, despite John Guidettis move to Celta Vigo and several large acquisitions to Serie A in the summer.
