DAZN relaunches football channel FIFA+

October 31, 2025 07.39 Europe/London By Julian Clover

FIFA and DAZN will relaunch FIFA+ in 2026 as a free, global “Home of Football” on the DAZN platform, with an optional premium tier.

The service will mix live and on-demand coverage from more than 100 men’s and women’s national teams and leagues, plus an exclusive multichannel news service with hourly updates, weekly analysis and originals. 

Mattias Grafström, FIFA Secretary General, said: “In a short period of time, the partnership between FIFA and DAZN has proven to be a remarkably successful one, as witnessed through the record-breaking FIFA Club World Cup tournament in the UnitedStates earlier this year.” 

Shay Segev, DAZN Group CEO, added: “Our new global football platform marks a significant milestone in our successful partnership with FIFA, and is an exceptional addition to DAZN’s extensive portfolio of premium football content.

FIFA+ itself is not new: the ad-funded OTT platform first launched in April 2022, offering thousands of live fixtures from member associations, original documentaries and a deep archive including every FIFA World Cup and Women’s World Cup match ever filmed. The 2026 relaunch on DAZN repackages that proposition with broader distribution and personalisation features. 

FIFA says the DAZN partnership brings scaled technology, marketing and distribution to reach fans “everywhere”, with FIFA+ on DAZN set to be free to access worldwide, subject to market rights, and with paid add-ons available.
