The German FA (DFL) announced two tenders of national media rights of Bundesliga, Bundesliga 2 and Supercup football for four seasons from '17-18 until '20-21 for use in Germany.

Companies are invited to submit an offer for audio-visual exploitation rights for live and time-delayed highlight use via the satellite, terrestrial, cable/IPTV, Web and Mobile transmission paths. The DFL will start the tender process and inform interested companies as well as the general public about the final structure of rights packages and the further course of events upon completion of the assessment of the marketing model for the tender by the German federal competition authority. All parties interested in acquiring national media rights can register for participation in both tender processes starting Monday. The corresponding registration forms are available at
