Kylian Mbappé announced his choice to leave PSG next summer to club president Nasser El-Khelafi on Tuesday, as reported by RMC Sport. An announcement that comes in the midst of over-the-counter negotiations for television rights during the 2024-2029 period.
Behind the scenes, discussions continue between the media and professional football leagues. But the information published by RMC Sport at 5:30 pm today has not gone unnoticed by the candidates for the Ligue 1 broadcast. “Who is the star of Ligue 1 now? This news will not help the league, it is clear. And it is clear. Be the negotiating lever. Especially for foreign broadcasters!” Commented on the source of the first channel. But to what extent could this reduce the international amount? For the moment, it is difficult to estimate this new figure.
“Mbappé’s departure is not a surprise! The LFP has chosen to launch its calls for tenders during the last season of his contract, it is good that he believes he has other arguments to claim. There will be other players, other matches” Adds regularly on calls for tenders. “This does not have an explosion effect. The image of a star like Mbappé affects the value of the league. But this league is stronger than one or two players. Even if it is a superstar,” another media outlet added. . “Will half of French subscribers stop watching Ligue 1 and PSG because Mbappé is leaving? No. It’s a competitive league with Marseille, Lille and Lyon. The bidding war is between broadcasters, not based on the player. Internationally, half of Americans watch Mbappé. Don’t know who is… so they won’t unsubscribe” concluded one final broadcaster.
On the physical side, surveyed by RMC Sport, the speech remains: this departure is bad news for spectators because Mbappé was the best French player, the most spectacular. But her departure will have no impact, she said, on domestic rights talks that have been ongoing since October. At no time is his name at the center of discussions about television rights. LFP estimates that broadcasters are working on a five-year contract, taking into account star departures and arrivals. On the other hand, in terms of international rights, this may have little effect in certain regions as Ligue 1 is only used for Kylian Mbappé. But this effect will be negligible, as 2/3 of the international rights have already been sold.
