The OTT sports platform DAZN is in talks with the US investment company TPG to sell the sports news website Goal.com for $125m (€111m), according to information from the New York Times on 03/06/2020.

Discussions began at the end of 2019, according to the American newspaper. DAZN has been strongly impacted by the end of sports competitions due to its non-binding subscription model. Its American-British owner, Len Blavatnik, is seeking to sell shares according to information from the Financial Times on 23/05/2020 (see below).

With a presence in over 50 countries, Goal.com was founded in 2004 and acquired by Perform Group (now DAZN Group) for £18m (€20m) in 2011.
