The new UEFA Women's Champions League 2021/22 will be bigger and more open than ever, and not because of its 16-team group stage. But because fans around the world will have the opportunity to follow the competition thanks to coverage guaranteed by a four-year partnership with streaming platform DAZN in collaboration with YouTube. The agreement is designed to grow the UEFA Women's Champions League, to consolidate the reputation and prestige of players and clubs, and above all to inspire the next generation.
UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin said: "Two years ago, when we unveiled UEFA's first strategy for women's football, 'Time for Action', we promised that the sport would become bigger, more professional and more prosperous by 2024. Several initiatives have followed since then; this latest one is a big step in that direction."
A first for the competition, the new deal will disproportionately increase the visibility of women's football by allowing anyone via YouTube to immerse themselves in the action of the UEFA Women's Champions League and, most importantly, not oversubscribe. A move that will allow €24 million to be spread across European women's football and give it an even brighter future.
