The CANAL+ Group confirmed the extension of its contract with the National Soccer League (NSL) for the rights to broadcast the Premier Soccer League (PSL) matches.
CANAL+, which recently acquired the MultiChoice Group, confirmed its listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) on Wednesday, 03 June 2026.
The renewed contract continues the long-standing collaboration and is one of the most enduring sports rights partnerships within the CANAL+ Group’s global portfolio.
PSL chairman, Irvin Khoza said: “Football institutions are built through consistency, responsible stewardship and strong relationships. Together, the PSL and SuperSport have worked to grow the game, strengthen our clubs and bring South African football to audiences across the continent. We are pleased that this partnership will continue, with CANAL+ sharing our commitment to the long-term growth and success of South African club football.”
David Mignot, CANAL+ Africa CEO, said: “The extension of our partnership with the PSL is an important moment for CANAL+ following our acquisition of MultiChoice Group last year. It underscores our commitment to invest in compelling local sports and entertainment content across Africa.”
