Canal+ boss Maxime Saada says he is not participating in the current negotiations for Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 rights. Saada: “We believe we have been victims of very significant harm for the Canal+ group.” Canal+ still cannot digest having continued to pay 332 million euros to broadcast two elite matches.

Amazon Prime had taken over the rest of the meetings from the Spanish company for 250 million euros per year. The LFP is banking heavily on a duel or a collaboration with BeIN Sports.
