DUBAI (Reuters) - Qatar’s BeIN Media Group on Thursday said it had retained exclusive television rights to broadcast the Champions League, Europa League and other UEFA competitions across the Middle East and North Africa for a further three years.
BeIN would also continue to broadcast the UEFA Europa Conference League and had won the rights to show the UEFA Women’s Champions League in Arabic, English and French in 24 countries across the region, it said in a statement.
The value of the contract, which runs until 2024, was not given. Bloomberg reported BeIN had paid about $600 million for the rights, citing a source it did not identify.
