Movistar Fútbol was a paid Spanish television channel owned by Telefónica, which broadcast matches from two of the five major European leagues: Serie A and Ligue 1. [1] It was available exclusively on Movistar+, and had two other auxiliary signals (Movistar Fútbol 1-2), for matches played simultaneously.

History

The channel began broadcasting on February 1, 2007, replacing "Canal + Deportes 1". [2] The channel was dedicated exclusively to football, and began broadcasting matches of some of the major, as well as qualifying, matches for the final stages of UEFA selections. On 1 August 2016 the channel was renamed "Movistar Fútbol". The substitution of the Canal+ brand was framed within the transition in the visual identity of the channels of the Movistar+ platform. [3]

On 9 August 2018 the channel became exclusive for the non-residential clients of the platform, as a replica of the contents broadcast by the Movistar Liga de Campeones channel for individuals. [4] Mid-season 2018/19, on 7 March 2019, the channel returned to individuals, to cover the Ligue 1 of France and the Italian Serie A, after having acquired the rights of the same to Mediapro. [5] Finally in mid-April 2019, the channel stopped broadcasting disappearing weeks later on IPTV and on 10 May 2019 on satellite, moving its content to #Vamos and Movistar Liga de Campeones and its auxiliary signals. [6] Movistar Fútbol was closed officially on 7 August 2019.
