Disney+ has secured live men's Champions League rights for the first time, becoming a preferred bidder in several European markets including Sweden in the auction of 19 TV markets for the 2027-31 cycle. The deal marks the US company's inaugural purchase of Champions League rights and demonstrates the widening appeal of the competition to broadcasters and streamers. Uefa is projecting total TV rights will exceed €5bn annually when tenders conclude, with commercial deals expected to generate over €1bn per year.
