ESPN Won’t Be Part Of Major League Soccer’s Newest TV Deal

ESPN won't be part of Major League Soccer's new TV deal with Fox Sports and Univision. Fox will broadcast 34 regular season games and the MLS Cup through 2026. Bell Media will show games on its TSN and RDS networks. The new deals are part the league's streaming deal. Apple's acquisition of the entire streaming content in June made the rights less valuable. The service launches in 2023. Fans with Apple TV+ can pay an additional $79 per season for MLS content. Without the service, fans can get $99 per year.

ESPN won't be part of Major League Soccer's new TV deal.
