LFP TV rights: "It would be good if before the July holidays everything was done" (J-M Aulas, OL)

The LFP "will be able to start negotiations normally by mutual agreement (for unassigned 2021-2024 TV rights). The deadline is still the month of June. It would be good if before the July holidays, everything is done. I know that the teams of Vincent Labrune and Mathieu Ficot (respectively president and deputy CEO of the LFP) are working hard on it already, and certainly that we will have to work with them," stated Jean-Michel Aulas, president of Olympique Lyonnais (Ligue 1 Uber Eats), to Agence France Presse on 16/03/2021.

"In the past, we have seen that when we waited until the last minute, as was the case with Mediapro, there followed major difficulties. It is not good to wait until the last moment in terms of TV rights," said Jean-Michel Aulas.

"Let us not forget, with TV rights it is the end consumer who must be satisfied even before the broadcasters," added the president of Olympique Lyonnais.
