The French Olympic Committee (CNOSF) has agreed a four-year partnership with public-service broadcaster France Télévisions.

Under the deal, which will run from 2017 to 2020, France Télévisions will cover and promote French sporting events through its various platforms.

This agreement will strengthen the coverage of French sport in all its richness and diversity.”
