Bangladesh’s 2026 FIFA World Cup broadcast rights have taken a new turn after Singapore-based Springbok Private Limited withdrew from its agreement with FIFA. The company had initially secured the Bangladesh media rights for about 7.211 million US dollars but failed to make scheduled payments, leading FIFA to cancel the deal. With the World Cup set to begin on June 12 and end on July 20, Bangladeshi broadcasters now have a chance to negotiate directly with FIFA at lower rates.
Springbok had demanded around 12.3 million dollars from Bangladesh Television (BTV) for the rights, including TV, radio, mobile, and internet coverage, but BTV declined due to the high cost. Following the cancellation, T Sports, Star News, and a Dubai-based firm are now competing to buy the rights directly from FIFA. Government requests for free broadcast access were rejected by FIFA, which cited its funding commitments to national football federations.
Experts say FIFA may now offer the rights for 2–3 million dollars, reflecting regional market adjustments. Calls have also emerged for an independent audit into alleged irregularities during the 2022 World Cup rights deal.
