The collapse of the deal between Leo Kirch's Sirius Group and the German football league (DFL) for TV rights between 2009 and 2015 is good news for Premiere, the current holder, and News Corp, which has built up a 25% stake in the pay-TV platform. GMI believes a bid for rights by News Corp would significantly increase the investment value of Premiere. However German pay TV market is not without risks and Spanish platform Digital Plus may be a better target.
