    Population:

    • Germany: 83m
    • Spain: 47m

    GDP per capita

    • Germany: 51.200 US Dollars

    • Spain: 30.100 US Dollars

    And considering that pretty much fussball is popular in Germany as much as futbol in Spain I’d be very surprising if it would be otherwise.

    Considering the german domestic TV deal is for Buli and 2.Buli then I’m still quite surprised that Bundesliga is on pair with La Liga given both Germany’s population and GDP are almost TWICE as Spain which means there are MORE people willing to watch football and willing to spend MORE money given their higher salaries compared to Iberia.

    The real standing for the domestic TV rights considering the quality of the league, GDP, population and soccer popularity in a certain country the standing should be: EPL >> Bundesliga > Serie A = Spain = Ligue 1

    Well done Javier Tebas.

      Actually German “should” be first, it’s a bigger economy but people won’t accept being gouged there, its for no lack of loving football if anything I would say the opposite. The culture over here accepts this bullshit way too easily and its horrible.

      You’re not taking into account the whole Latin American market that shares the same language. Not as much to do with Tebas as simply sharing the same language as a much bigger marker. Same can be said about the Premiee League.

          These deals are domestic league contracts, as in not including international games. Go look at source one on the wikipedia sources for the chart. Pague 75 Inthink it was has the chart with the length and revenues for domestic and international broadcasting and the numbers add to the total on thr Wikipedia charts.

            That’s off topic tho.

            We’re just discussing the domestic TV deals here and to me it’s surprising La Liga can be so competitive despite their INFERIORITY to the other top leagues in terms of audience (least in terms of population and GDP per capita)
