Mediapro, shareholder in the commercial channel La Sexta, is launching GolTV (Goal TV), a pay-TV channel specifically dedicated to football that will be initially distributed via cable and ADSL. The channel will also be on DTT when the Government changes the legislation to allow pay DTT content.

The channel will include football matches from the Italian, German, French and Dutch Football Leagues, as well as information and reviews about the Spanish Football League and even some matches from certain Spanish Football teams. Mediapro plans to offer the whole Spanish Football League from next season 2009-2010 as the company has the majority of football rights from that time.
