The DFB, the German football association, has launched a tender for the domestic media rights to Germany national team, lower-league and women’s football matches.
The rights cover two seasons, from 2016-17 to 2017-18, and include national men’s and women’s team friendly matches.
The DFB has also put on the market rights for games in the third-tier 3.Liga and the women’s top-tier Bundesliga.
The governing body said that the men’s national team matches would have to be shown on free-to-air television, as they are deemed to be sporting events of national importance.
No deadline was given for the bids on the DFB website, but the governing body said that the bidding documents had been distributed to interested parties.
