UEFA has awarded various club competition media rights in Japan to its existing partner SkyPerfecTV. The rights concern the 2009-12 UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup matches in 2009, 2010 and 2011, and the 2009-2012 UEFA Europa League.
Extensive coverage
SkyPerfecTV, a leading pay operator in Japan, will deliver extensive coverage of each competition in the form of live matches, highlights and delayed match programmes. As part of this agreement, weekly UEFA Champions League highlights and magazines as well as the full transmission of the final stages of each competition will be shown on free-to-air television. The broadcaster will also exploit the rights it has been awarded for both competitions on the internet via skyperfectv.co.jp and on mobile.
Excellent partner
"UEFA is delighted to confirm these new rights deals which will deliver significant coverage for both competitions over the next three seasons in Japan," said UEFA General Secretary David Taylor. "SkyPerfecTV has proved to be an excellent partner for the UEFA Champions League in recent seasons and we also look forward to continuing that relationship in the new-look UEFA Europa League." TEAM Marketing AG is the exclusive marketing agent of UEFA for the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and UEFA Europa League.
