Sports streamer DAZN has secured a deal to stream Spain’s domestic cup competition, the Copa Del Rey, in Spain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Japan.
The three-year deal covers the upcoming seasons from 2019/20 - 2021/22, and represents DAZN’s first package of domestic football rights in Spain.
In Spain, DAZN will stream a minimum of 50 matches from the competition exclusively, alongside 15 co-exclusive matches, each season as part of a sublicensing agreement with Mediaset. Non-exclusive fixtures will include the final and semi-finals of the competition.
DAZN has also secured the exclusive broadcast rights for the competition in four additional markets, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Japan, for the next three seasons
Last season saw Valencia take home the trophy in a victory over former champions Barcelona, claiming their eighth title.
Jacopo Tonoli, Chief Commercial Officer, DAZN Group, said: “This is a fantastic deal for our fans in Spain, who can now enjoy domestic football on DAZN as the home of the Copa del Rey.”
