France Télévisions is notably in the ranks. TF1 also. M6 had announced it on Monday.

The Professional Football League (LFP) has sent all broadcasters a mini-consultation concerning the broadcast of the Classico between OM and PSG which will be played next Sunday. Interested channels had until 6 p.m. to submit their offers. The football body must now study them. Who answered? According to our information, France Télévisions returned a copy to the League. The public audiovisual group is probably not the only one in the ranks. Monday, Nicolas de Tavernost, the president of the management board of M6, had published a Tweet to announce that he was going to be a candidate. "After this unsuccessful call for tenders and in order not to deprive the public of the OM-PSG match, M6 reiterates its proposal to the LFP to broadcast the match this Sunday," he wrote. As for TF1, in mid-January, the subsidiary of the Bouygues group had offered to temporarily broadcast Ligue 1. According to our information, the front page has also submitted an offer. Contacted, TF1 did not comment.
