Overview
- Gol Play ceased its free-to-air TDT signal on June 10, marking its exit from traditional Spanish television after launching in 2016.
- The channel will continue to stream through paid services including Movistar Plus+, Orange TV, Vodafone TV and its own OTT platform Gol Stadium.
- Amazon Prime captured Segunda División rights and DAZN secured the top-tier weekly match, eroding Gol Play’s live football offerings.
- Television audience share on TDT had dwindled below 1 percent as sports viewers migrated to streaming services.
- The shift aligns with Mediapro’s strategy to pivot toward digital distribution in response to Spain’s TDT modernization using DVB-T2 technology.
