DAZN has secured exclusive rights to the match in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Japan; and will broadcast the fixture non-exclusively in Italy.
Discovery will show the match in Denmark on its 6-eren channel and on its Eurosport Player.
This season’s Copa del Rey final sees Barcelona take on Valencia at the Benito Villamarín Stadium in Seville on Saturday.
The rights-holder, Spain’s football federation, was ordered by a Spanish court on Monday to reverse its exclusion of the Mediapro agency from the domestic tender for the final and re-adjudicate the process.
