Fox Sports solidifies its place as home of football with La Liga and Serie A television rights Fox Sports confirms its position as the home of football, acquiring exclusive rights to both La Liga and Serie A. FOX Sports has solidified its position as the home of football, acquiring exclusive Australian rights to broadcast the Spanish La Liga and Italian Serie A for the next two seasons. Australia's sports leader will broadcast two LIVE matches each week with an additional two matches on delay from both leagues, starting with the Madrid and Turin derbies this Sunday, 29 September. Every week football fans will be able to watch some of the planet's best teams in High Definition glory, including: Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Villareal, Inter Milan, Juventus, AC Milan, AS Roma and Napoli. Subscribers will be able to see the likes of Lionel Messi, Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Mario Balotelli, Andrea Pirlo and David Villa in full flight. Socceroos legend and current Melbourne Heart coach John Aloisi, who was the first Australian ever to play and score in La Liga, the English Premier League and Serie A, has praised the broadcast deal. "It is fantastic for Australian football fans to be able to enjoy two of the top club competitions in world football," Aloisi said. Fans can not only look forward to watching big matches such as the Manchester Derby, but now they can catch the Milan and Madrid derbies, and see world-class players like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo live every week. Aloisi, who played 48 games in the Italian top flight with Cremonese between 1995-1997 and in Spain's La Liga between 2001-2007 for Osasuna (121 games) and Alaves (58 games), said there was growing appetite for European club football in Australia. "Having played in Italy and Spain, I always keep a close eye on the competition and they are growing in popularity each year in Australia," Aloisi said. Fox Sports is the home of football and will broadcast the Spanish and Italian leagues. I think football fans across Australia will welcome this broadcast deal. Fox Sports already shows all 380 Barclays Premier League matches as well as every match from the domestic Hyundai A-League. The football feast doesn't end there, with AFC Asian Cup and AFC Champions League, and LIVE coverage of Socceroos matches and FIFA World Cup Qualifiers also on the menu.
