Even if the macro-economic and financial context is delicate, "admitted the leader, the LFP hopes to reach this symbolic number for "global audiovisual revenues", i.e. the domestic and international rights of Ligue 1 and Ligue 2. "It may be a little optimistic but we have a significant margin of progress on the international," added Labrune.

During the previous cycle, the League, which hoped to receive for the period 2020-2024 1.153 billion euros per year for Ligue 1, including more than 800 million Mediapro which then went bankrupt, had to review its ambitions downwards and settle for a valuation of 624 million euros per year.
