TVR

Romania’s public broadcaster TVR has missed a payment to the European Broadcasting Union for rights to the 2022 Fifa World Cup, putting the fate of its existing agreement at risk.

Romanian public-service broadcaster TVR is set to renew its deal for rights to the 2022 and 2024 Olympic Games in the country after agreeing to pay a slightly increased fee.

Coverage of the 2018-19 season of the Liga ACB, the top division of basketball in Spain, will be available in 140 countries after the league distributed its rights in-house.

TVR is in the process of completing its deal for rights to the 2018 and 2020 Olympic Games in Romania.

Romania’s public-service broadcaster TVR and general entertainment channel Antena 1 failed in a last-gasp attempt to block a deal by commercial broadcaster Pro TV for free-to-air rights to 23 Euro 2016 matches.

Huge debts and the threat of insolvency mean TVR, Romania’s public-service broadcaster, is struggling to agree a deal for this summer’s Euro 2016.
