A month and a half of the first day of Ligue 1, decisions were finally made this Tuesday concerning the broadcast of the French championship. The club presidents met in college with the presence of Nicolas de Tavernost, the director general of the commercial company LFP Media. The latter praised them the League platform project (8 L1 games per day broadcast next season, then 100 % from 2026-2027).
It is a new model in a large sports league. The presidents accepted after a board of directors the creation of the LFP channel with a launch offer at € 14.99 per month with commitment. The non -binding offer amounts to 20 euros.
“The College of Presidents of Ligue 1 clubs, the LFP Media supervision committee and the LFP board of directors unanimously adopted a major strategic project: the creation of a TV and digital platform entirely dedicated to Ligue 1 McDonald’s, managed and managed by LFP Media”, writes the press release published by the League on Tuesday evening.

“More immersive and carried by all the clubs of Ligue 1 McDonald’s, the platform will broadcast the ten most beautiful posters of the season as soon as the season, eight live matches every day from Friday to Sunday, accompanied by a great magazine available – offered in clear – on Sunday evening. »»
After a succession of crises and broadcasters unable to offer several hundred millions of millions, the LFP therefore embarks on an almost exclusive retransmission of its matches on its own channel, produced both by its teams and a production company definitively chosen at the weekend to accompany it in this uncertain challenge.
BEIN SPORTS will keep its poster on Saturday at 5 p.m. for the 2025-2026 season, thus ensuring a € 78.5 million jackpot at L1. The rest of the audiovisual income of the French championship will now depend on the number of subscribers to this new platform.
