- Netflix secured exclusive broadcasting rights to the 2030 FIFA World Cup in Spain and Andorra through an agreement with FIFA.
- The deal gives Netflix all 104 matches of the tournament, which the source identifies as the centenary edition of the World Cup.
- The acquisition fits into Netflix's stated strategy of expanding its live sports portfolio, per the source.
- Coverage from Deadline carries the same headline framing — both outlets emphasize Netflix's full exclusivity in the market, though neither reports the financial terms of the deal.
Why it matters: FIFA handed its centenary World Cup — all 104 matches — exclusively to a single streaming service in Spain and Andorra, a market traditionally served by free-to-air broadcasters, while advancing Netflix's stated ambition to scale its live sports footprint.
