D.C. United Signs Exclusive Local Media Rights Deal With Streaming Platform FloSports

MLS club D.C. United has signed a multi-year contract with subscription-based streaming service FloSports. The platform is now the exclusive home to all locally televised D.C. United matches and will carry 21 of the club’s 34 regular season games in 2019.

WJLA 24/7 News (owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group) has locally televised United games within the Washington, D.C. area over the past three years. But as part of United’s new deal with FloSports, local games will stream only on FloSports’ new soccer-dedicated channel at FloFC.com. According to The Washington Post, the deal is for up to four years.
