NFL broadcasting may not return to Fox Sports

In an unexpected turn of events, the NFL has decided not to renew its broadcast rights with Fox Sports in Mexico, marking the end of an era for fans who for years enjoyed games through this network. This decision has profound implications for the country's sports television landscape, as well as for fans' access to one of the most followed sports in Mexico.

Reasons for the breakup between NFL and Fox Sports
The main reason behind this decision is a contractual and financial dispute. According to sources close to the matter, Fox Sports Mexico has faced significant financial problems, hindering its ability to meet the payments required for broadcast rights.

The NFL, for its part, said in a statement that the decision is related to "a contractual matter." Although no specific details were given, it is clear that the relationship between both parties has deteriorated, to the point of not contemplating a renewal in the future.

Impact on fans
Fans who used to follow the NFL on Fox Sports will now have to look for alternatives to not miss the season's games. The most prominent option is NFL Game Pass, available on the DAZN platform.

This service offers access to all regular season games, playoffs, and Super Bowl LIX. Although it is a comprehensive solution, it is not free. The regular price is 675 pesos, although it currently has a special seasonal promotion that reduces the cost to 375 pesos. This transition implies an additional expense for NFL followers, which has generated discontent among some fans.

Crisis at Fox Sports Mexico
The exit from the NFL could be just the beginning of a series of problems for Fox Sports Mexico. Analysts have pointed out that the network faces serious financial difficulties that could impact other important broadcasts, such as the Premier League and Formula 1.

Recently, it was reported that Fox Sports faces lawsuits for non-payment related to Concacaf broadcasting rights, which further aggravates its situation. These problems reflect a possible liquidity crisis that threatens the continuity of the network in the sports television market.
