Zee Entertainment Enterprises has secured exclusive broadcast and digital media rights for Germany’s Bundesliga in India through a five-year deal, with coverage starting in the 2026–27 season. Multiple outlets report that live Bundesliga matches will be available to Indian audiences via Zee’s streaming platform Zee5, alongside television coverage on Unite8 Sports channels. The agreement strengthens Zee’s expanding football portfolio in the country, following the company’s recent entry into rights related to the FIFA World Cup, as noted in some reporting. NDTV also frames the announcement as part of a broader strategy for completing India’s football viewership offering, quoting Unite8 Sports Chief Business Officer Bhavesh Janavlekar. NDTV adds that Zee says the partnership will bring matches featuring high-profile players such as Harry Kane, Jamal Musiala, Michael Olise and Joshua Kimmich. Industry coverage also describes the deal as a move that expands the Bundesliga’s availability in India and capitalizes on the league’s growing fanbase over recent seasons. The reports collectively emphasize the exclusivity, the five-year term, and the start date for Zee’s Bundesliga programming.
