After announcing theacquisition of World Padel Tour, CANAL + has now chosen its team of commentators and consultants. A team that will be operational for the first tournament in Madrid and from the resumption in 2022.

Padel until 2026 throughout the Canal + territory

CANAL + will broadcast the “Madrid Masters Final” on its sports channels, from December 16 to 19, 2021, which will conclude the 2021 season. The next 5 seasons, ie until 2026, will then be offered.

This is an acquisition of the CANAL + Group for almost all of its territories around the world, bringing together more than 22 millions of subscribers and which illustrates the will to develop CANAL + in the world.

Padel will thus benefit, as with the other sports that CANAL+ broadcasts, from quality coverage, with live broadcasts largely enriched by the work of the editorial teams.
