The CEO of DAZN Belgium, Massimo D’Amario, has leveled sharp criticism at the country’s telecom companies following the continued failure to agree on the distribution of top-flight football. DAZN secured an exclusive deal with the Belgian Pro League to broadcast matches between 2025 and 2030. However, negotiations with telecom operators over distribution have hit a significant snag, despite DAZN's latest offer.
In an interview with Het Laatste Nieuws, D’Amario stated: “Despite DAZN’s latest proposal, which takes significant steps towards the historical distributors, none of them has responded in a way that offers any prospect of an agreement being reached.” He continued, expressing his disappointment: “While we had hoped for a different outcome, the discussions of the past two weeks indicate that a quick solution is unlikely. As we evaluate our next steps, we reaffirm DAZN’s full commitment to bringing Belgian football to all football fans.”
