BBC Sport has secured exclusive free-to-air broadcast rights to the UEFA Women’s Champions League through to 2030, including the final and up to seven live matches each season on TV and BBC iPlayer. This multi-platform deal also includes comprehensive digital coverage featuring highlights and key moments across BBC’s website, app, and social media channels, including a new Women’s Football TikTok account, making the competition more accessible and visible than ever. The coverage will start with high-profile matches such as Manchester United vs Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea vs Barcelona, showcasing top women players and boosting the profile of women’s football. BBC Radio 5 Live will continue to provide live commentary on major games, complementing the broadcast and digital content. The deal follows UEFA's new competition format and branding, and is part of a broader strategy to expand women’s soccer coverage in the UK alongside existing rights to the Women’s Super League and the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup, shared with ITV. Both BBC and UEFA representatives highlighted the importance of free-to-air and digital-first approaches to engage a wider audience and grow the sport's popularity.
