Who is broadcasting the 2025 Club World Cup?
The 2025 Club World Cup will be available in Germany on two providers: On the one hand, on the sports streaming service DAZN, where all 63 matches of the FIFA Club World Cup will be broadcast live, and on the other hand on Sat.1, where a few selected matches may be shown.
DAZN has secured the global media rights for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, making it the best place to watch the Club World Cup: All 63 matches of this club world championship will be broadcast here – free of charge. From the opening match on June 14 to the final on July 13, the sports streamer will show all matches live.
The sports streamer is offering this summer’s sporting highlight without a subscription. All you need to do to watch all the matches on the Club World Cup schedule is register.
In addition, Sat.1 is involved in the 2025 Club World Cup broadcast. The private broadcaster has reached a sublicensing agreement with rights holder DAZN.
However, the Club World Cup broadcast on Sat.1 mainly covers the German clubs Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. Sat.1 will show all Bayern and BVB matches in the Club World Cup live on free-to-air TV, from the group stage to the final, if there is one.
If neither of the two Bundesliga clubs are represented in a knockout round, any match will be shown on Sat.1. For example, if neither Bayern nor BVB are in the quarter-finals, Sat.1 will show a quarter-final match. Which match this will be depends on the respective fixtures.
The “Sat.1 games” at the Club World Cup will not only be available on TV, but also via stream. Either directly at ran.de or in the free JOYN app.
ARD and ZDF, however, are not involved in the 2025 Club World Cup broadcast. The matches will also not be shown on RTL.
Where will the Bayern & BVB Club World Cup matches be broadcast live?
