Following the success, VMG Media and Next Media officially own the exclusive rights to the German Football Championship - Bundesliga on all broadcasting platforms for 5 seasons from 2023-2028.

At the same time, we are also the first unit to bring the copyright of the 3-season German National Cup DFB-Pokal to Vietnam.

Outstanding young Vietnamese players will have the opportunity to train and compete in Germany, contributing to improving the quality of Vietnamese football."

As the unit that initiated the cooperation with Bundesliga International since 2020, Next Media General Director Nguyen Trung Kien said: “Not only cooperating on broadcasting copyright, we have been very successful in cooperating to develop football, demonstrated in friendly matches between the Vietnam national team and Borussia Dortmund Club, the True Love charity match or the tour of the Vietnam U17 team with German youth teams.

This time, the level of cooperation between the parties will be pushed to a new level. We not only combine on the football aspect, but also connect businesses, bringing the two countries of Vietnam and Germany closer together."

In addition to the tours and friendly matches between the two countries' football teams that have been committed, excellent Vietnamese male and female players will have the opportunity to go to Germany to play for clubs through the cooperation program.

In addition, coaches from Germany will also come to Vietnam to select excellent young players in the “Bundesliga Dream Team” program to train and compete in Europe.

Not only in sports, the cooperation between the two countries also extends to other fields with Next Media, Bundesliga, and the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Vietnam (AHK) co-organizing the German-Vietnamese Business Summit to bridge investment from Germany to Vietnam.

Bundesliga International Marketing Director Peer Norbert said: “When signing contracts with broadcast partners, our aim is to achieve long-term partnerships based on trust and mutual respect.

The extension of the contract between the two parties is a great result of the commitment to cooperate between the two parties, not only in the field of broadcasting copyright but also in promoting the development of football throughout Vietnam.

When we started working together three years ago, we built a strategy together and stuck to it despite the changes and challenges we faced.

Since then, Bundesliga viewership has increased by almost 500% and the Youth Incubator Project 2022 has reached over 15 million people. All results show continued success and we are excited to look forward to the next steps in this partnership.”
