There again how many people actually watch foreign football outside of the odd big match (such as Barcelona v Real Madrid).

I watched a lot of Bundesliga football last year, due to a combination of being on Furlough and no Premier League/ Premiership Rugby being on.

Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

The way the rights move around suggest I'm not the only one.

I doubt very much genuine supporters will miss their clubs home game to watch a foreign football match. I think the only ones watching will be the likes of me who never attend a football match due to the cost of getting there and match day ticket.
