Media Companies Bringing Euro 2020 to African Viewers

Despite major efforts from sports leagues like the NBA, European club football is still far and away the most watched variety of sport on the African continent.

This is mainly driven by African players becoming stars in competitions like the Premier League, Serie A, and the Champions League.

However, when the domestic league campaigns are all done and dusted, attention turns to international football, and because the African Cup of Nations has been moved to 2022, all eyes will be on this summer’s Euro 2020.

Here are some of the media companies and broadcasters who are transmitting the games to various parts of Africa.

TVMS – Kenya

TVMS (TV Media Sport) are giving Kenyan footy fans an absolute treat this summer, choosing to broadcast the European Championships on a free-to-air basis.

This means that all other fans around the continent will be jealous of Kenyans, who as long as they have a TV to hand can watch all the games for free.

SuperSport – Sub-Saharan Africa and South Africa

South Africa has always been an anomaly when it comes to African broadcast rights. Thankfully for viewers there, more competition is helping to lower prices, which had begun to skyrocket of late.

SuperSport is one such broadcaster, who mix a blend of quality production with a full array of scheduled content. Their product will also be available in Sub-Saharan Africa.
