Ziggo Sport retains Juliper Pro league rights

Ziggo Sport, the sports TV offering from Dutch cable and mobile operators VodafoneZiggo, has retained rights to show football from the Belgian Pro League exclusively for the next two seasons. 

The deal means that the Dutch sports channel has extended its existing collaboration with the Jupiler Pro League. The competition can be seen exclusively on Ziggo Sport up to and including the 2024-25 season.

Ziggo Sport said the agreement would complement its extensive range of live top football.

In addition to the Jupiler Pro League, the sports channel has other exclusive broadcasting rights of national and international competitions.

The channel announced in November that it had acquired the exclusive media rights for the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA Conference League for three seasons.

In addition, the rights for the Turkish Süper Lig were won last year and the Spanish La Liga, French Ligue 1, the Italian Serie A, the English FA Cup and the German DFB-Pokal can be seen exclusively at Ziggo Sport and Ziggo Sport Totaal.

Viewers can also follow the UEFA qualifying matches for European and World Cups, as well as the UEFA Nations League matches live.

Marcel Beerthuizen, Director Ziggo Sport, said: “Ziggo Sport is the sports channel in the Netherlands with an extensive range of top football. The Belgian Jupiler Pro League is important to us. It is a competition with attractive clubs and with play-offs that guarantee exciting matches. A nice side effect is that more and more Dutch players and trainers are successful in Belgium. We are pleased to be able to offer the Jupiler Pro League exclusively to all Ziggo Sport viewers and followers in the Netherlands for the next two seasons.”
