Football fans will no longer need to go searching in vain for matches filtered by Rights Holders on their varied platforms ...
This is massive and if the fan base signs enmasse to the newly launched *FIFA+* platform and with billions of fans around the world that will be seamless and a no brainer for it becoming the go to source for everything Football.
Football Associations and Federations are in for a financial boon as they will never have to scratch around for funds going forward with residual and passive income coming in from shared revenue from FIFA through this platform where their local leagues will be steamed from.
The question is with such attractive draw of an all in one platform for everything Football (Soccer) and the slew of cash to be made how long will it be before FIFA makes a foray into the old cumbersome technology of Free to Air Broadcasting or will it even be necessary as streaming technology improves with 5G technology and future improvements on accessibility around the world.
Cost of quality access to content by telecom carriers around the world including territories like Africa, Central and South America and Southern Asia where technology has been a bit slow in catching up to the advancements of the Northern hemisphere is fast improving and its only a matter of time before everyone around the World gets there ...
Will *FIFA+* rival or eclipse Netflix with over 200 million+ subscribers around the world? ... Methinks eclipse...
Congratulations to Gianni Infantino and FIFA for such a massive move ... one that was inevitable anyway. FIFA has blazed a trail will other Sports Governing bodies follow?
