 ‘Champions League’ is a New FAST Channel Featuring Nonstop Goals, Highlights and More From the World’s Most Prestigious Club Competition

 

Debuting April 26 on Pluto TV and CBS Sports CTV App, ‘Champions League’ is the Latest Addition to CBS Sports’ FAST Offerings

 

CBS Sports today launched “Champions League” as a new, 24-hour streaming channel that will serve as the year-round destination for nonstop highlights of all the memorable moments and dramatic finishes from the world’s most prestigious club soccer tournament, UEFA Champions League.

 

Beginning April 26, the new UEFA Champions League channel will bring to viewers the brilliant goals, legendary players, unforgettable matches and more from this season and throughout the tournament’s epic history. Around the clock, fans will be able to relive and replay the best of European soccer all year round.

 

At launch, Champions League is available free on Pluto TV and on connected TV devices through the CBS Sports App, with additional availability next month, including through the CBS Sports App on mobile, CBSSports.com and Paramount+. Paramount+ will continue to stream live every UEFA Champions League match as well as on-demand match replays.

 

“UEFA Champions League represents the absolute best soccer in the world, and this new channel delivers fans an always-on venue to relive the special moments, sensational goals, iconic players and storied clubs that define this one-of-a-kind tournament,” said Jeffrey Gerttula, executive vice president, digital, of CBS Sports, News, Stations and Entertainment. “CBS Sports is the 24/7 home for soccer fans in this country, and we’re excited for this latest addition to our industry-leading multiplatform soccer coverage.”

 

Since acquiring the rights to UEFA Champions League beginning in 2020, CBS Sports has become the ultimate destination for soccer fans. In 2023, CBS Sports continued the evolution of its best-in-class soccer coverage with the launch of CBS Sports Golazo Network, the first-of-its-kind free soccer streaming network in the U.S, and on social platforms, @CBSSportsGolazo has become the No. 1 U.S. soccer media brand in engagement rate and has driven over 4.2 billion video views over the last year.

 

Champions League extends Paramount Global’s position as the category leader in the development of free sports, news and entertainment streaming networks that offer viewers new ways to consume content and information like never before. In addition to CBS Sports Golazo Network, UEFA Champions League joins CBS Sports HQ, the always-on streaming sports news network; CBS News 24/7, CBS News’ free national streaming news service; and Pluto TV, the pioneer and leading player in the FAST industry.
