TVE

TVE is “playing fair” in its bid to acquire the Spanish national team's media rights to European qualifiers for the Uefa Euro 2016 and 2018 Fifa World Cup football tournaments, according to the public-service broadcaster’s president Leopoldo González-Echenique.

Spanish public-service broadcaster TVE’s acquisition of rights to the Uefa Champions League club football competition for the three seasons from 2012-13 to 2014-15 has been deemed legal by the Audiencia Nacional, the Spanish High Court.

Spanish public-service broadcaster TVE is in pole position to acquire media rights for European qualifiers for the Uefa Euro 2016 and 2018 Fifa World Cup national team football tournaments, according to newspaper El Mundo.
