Ethiopian football fans are set to enjoy world-class entertainment as SuperSport begins broadcasting up to three Ligue 1 McDonald’s matches every weekend, showcasing some of France’s top football talent, including Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembélé and rising star Désiré Doué.

The partnership between CANAL+ and SuperSport brings the excitement of French football closer to African audiences, adding one of Europe’s most prestigious leagues to the network’s expanding sports catalogue.

Rendani Ramovha, Director of Sport Content for English- and Portuguese-speaking Africa at MultiChoice (a CANAL+ company), emphasized the network’s commitment to African fans:

“SuperSport is proud to add to its array of explosive football action and entertainment for our viewers across Africa through the CANAL+ partnership with Ligue 1 McDonald’s. We know how much football is loved across the continent, and broadcasting a prestigious league such as Ligue 1 only adds to the value that our subscribers receive,” Ramovha said.

“The calibre of football talent now available on SuperSport speaks for itself, and we are thrilled to add the French League to our premium sports catalogue.”
