The Canadian Football League has signed a Mexican television deal with broadcaster MVS.
As part of the agreement, MVS will broadcast a CFL ‘Game of the Week’ beginning with the Week 1 Grey Cup rematch between the Ottawa Redblacks and the Calgary Stampeders on Saturday, June 15.
The broadcast deal continues the league’s international CFL 2.0 strategy.
“This is another important step forward in our plan to expand the CFL’s international footprint,” commissioner Randy Ambrosie said in a statement.
“We’ve seen large numbers of Mexican fans engaging with our online content and we’re confident this positive trend will continue with this landmark agreement with MVS.”
