VTV speaks out about purchasing Premier League copyright

VTVCab strives to bring Premier League to Vietnamese audiences.

Mr. Bui Huy Nam shared with Tri Thuc - Znews: "Currently, the copyright of the Premier League is in the negotiation process. The relevant units are all approaching, and VTVcab is also discussing. We hope that Vietnamese fans will continue to enjoy the top matches of the Premier League. The current issue is just commercial negotiations."

Mr. Bui Huy Nam's statement shows VTV's commitment to ensuring viewers' rights, while also demonstrating caution in negotiating to maintain the copyright of the world's most attractive tournament.

In parallel with the preparation for the Premier League, VTV9 and VTVcab announced their cooperation in exploiting copyrights for European tournaments, including Serie A (Italy), Ligue 1 (France), UEFA Europa League and UEFA Conference League, starting from November 2025. VTV9 becomes the only national television channel in Vietnam to broadcast these tournaments for free, bringing the opportunity to widely access European football to audiences across the country.

The matches will be broadcast live on VTV9 along with the VTVcab sports channel system and VTVprime application, along with pre-match and mid-match commentary programs, interactive minigames and behind-the-scenes sections, creating a complete and intimate football experience.

The event not only expands the opportunity to access top football for audiences, especially in areas that do not use pay TV, but also affirms VTV9's position as a national television channel connecting people's spiritual lives, creating a foundation for developing creative interactive sports programs.
