beIN Media Group extends rights deal in MENA and Asia

April 29, 2025 11.51 Europe/London By Julian Clover

UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Conference League, and UEFA Women’s Champions League will remain on beIN Sports until end of 2027 season.

The Doha-based group has extended its agreement to broadcast the UEFA Club competitions first established in the 2012/13 season. As part of the extension, beIN will broadcast the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Women’s Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Conference League across 33 markets for a further three years, until the end of the 2026/27 season.

The revamped format debuted this year across all three men’s competitions featuring 36-team leagues rather than group stages bringing 20% more matches to beIN subscribers in 23 countries across the MENA region and 10 countries in Asia. The new format for the UEFA Women’s Champions League, featuring 18-team leagues, will begin in the 2025/26 season.

Mohammed Al-Subaie, CEO of beIN MENA, said: “With UEFA’s new competition format living up to its promise and producing huge matches from matchday one, we are delighted that beIN will continue to bring this new era to our subscribers in MENA and Asia.”

As with this year, beIN will retain the exclusive rights to all matches across the MENA and Asia regions, broadcasting games simultaneously across its beIN SPORTS bouquet until the end of the 2027 season. The exclusive deal covers the following countries: Algeria, Bahrain, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, UAE, Yemen, Iraq, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, Timor-Leste, Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, with expanded coverage to bring back the UEFA Club Competitions on beIN in Indonesia and the Philippines.
