FIFA & the business of sports in India, China. Reliance-Disney just offered FIFA $20 million. FIFA doesn't like that. There's no broadcast deal in China either. Result? Billions of fans may miss the FIFA World Cup 2026

India's newly merged media giant has offered just $20 million bid for 2026 World Cup broadcast rights -- a fraction of FIFA's ask. With matches airing past midnight IST, ad budgets hit by the Iran conflict, and cricket still king, the math simply doesn't work for them, sources tell Reuters

Reliance-Disney has spent billions on cricket broadcast rights, but financials about FIFA rights not working for them.

Meanwhile China -- which accounted for nearly 50% of all digital World Cup viewing hours in 2022 -- has no deal either. Together the two countries represent over 22% of global World Cup streaming. Five weeks to kickoff. No broadcasters.

Read details. With @MunsifV @Amlan_Reuters, @JournoPraveen
