LFP: "beIN Sports and Canal+ will broadcast the play-offs (23 to 28/05/2017)" (Didier Quillot)
"The groups beIN Sports and Canal+ will broadcast the promotion-relegation play-offs between Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 and between Ligue 2 and the National (French third division), under conditions to be determined," announced Didier Quillot
CEO @ Didier Quillot Conseil
, the CEO of the LFP, during the Think Football! 2017 event hosted by News Tank Football at the l'Université Paris-Dauphine, on 10/01/2017.
Is the week of promotion-relegation play-offs considered part of the championships, of which the rights have already been sold? Or is this a new product that is subject to a new tender? This issue was not resolved when Didier Quillot said: "We will have a discussion with broadcasters about these new play-off games. And we will start with our existing broadcasters of the championships (beIN Sports and Canal+)," on 14/06/2016.
The calendar for the first edition of the promotion-relegation play-offs in France
- The third-place National team will host the 18th place Ligue 2 team on Tuesday, 23/05/2017.
- The thrid-place Ligue 2 team will host the 18th place Ligue 1 team on Thursday, 25/05/2017.
- Both return legs should be played on Sunday, 28/05/2017.
"There will be no match on 24 May, because that is the final of the Europa League, and also no match on Saturday, 27/06/2017, because that is the final of the Coupe de France," had stated Didier Quillot, on 14/06/2017.
