Amazon Secure 3-Year Deal to Show UEFA Champions League Games in Germany

Amazon's expansion into global football continues after the company bought a package to show the UEFA Champions League in Germany.

The deal will last for three seasons and begins in 2021-22, giving Amazon exclusive rights to show 16 matches per season from Europe's top competition, according to Mark Sweney of the Guardian.

Amazon's German customers will have the chance to watch Tuesday night games from the group phase and knockout rounds.

The company recently streamed 10 Premier League matches via its Prime platform in the UK, giving Amazon their biggest uptake in subscriptions since launching in 2007, per Sweney.
