Univision’s TUDN announced that it has extended its agreement with UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) to continue as the exclusive U.S. Spanish-language broadcast rights partner for the UEFA Champions League for another three seasons beginning in 2021.
As part of the renewal, TUDN will continue to carry the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Super Cup contests, and has added UEFA properties in the UEFA Europa Conference League and UEFA Youth League to bolster a broadcast lineup that delivers more than 50% of all soccer viewership in the country regardless of language.
“We are excited to continue our partnership with the UEFA Champions League following a historic start for the property across the Univision portfolio of networks. UEFA has strengthened our soccer profile and allowed us to bring the best fútbol in Europe to our fanáticos with the most-comprehensive coverage the league has ever seen in the U.S. We have laid the foundation, and remain committed to delivering world-class coverage of the UEFA Champions League to our passionate fanbase for the next several years,” said Juan Carlos Rodriguez, president of Sports, Univision Communications Inc.
