Sportsstreamingtjenesten DAZN udvider til Italien med køb af Serie A rettigheder

Streamingtjenesten DAZN, der er tilgængelig i Tyskland, Østrig, Schweiz, Kanada og Japan, udvider nu med endnu et land nemlig Italien. Det efter man har sikret sig italienske Serie A rettigheder.

I alt vises 114 Serie kampe pr. sæson over de næste tre år. Alle kampe vil blive tilgængelige både live og on demand,  ligesom DAZN har sikret sig rettighederne til at vise højdepunkter fra alle Serie A kampe.

Her er kommentar fra DAZN CEO James Rushton på nyheden:

“The sport industry is ripe for disruption. Consumer behaviour has been transformed by technology, with streaming becoming the new norm for viewing content. DAZN suits the changing needs of today’s sports fans. Since launching almost two years ago, we have disrupted the industry in multiple markets as we change the way the world sees sport,”

“DAZN is the world’s first pure sport OTT offer, which will do for sport what Netflix did for TV and what Spotify did for music. We are already the world’s largest sport broadcaster based on volume, streaming more than 100 million hours of content to fans each year. Our entry into Italy with Serie A rights is the first of many announcements we expect to make in the coming weeks as we reveal a range of premium domestic and international sports rights to create a multi-sport offering that is accessible, affordable and lives up to our fans first philosophy.”
