The backbone of the owners of this adventure – in all likelihood if the qualifying process goes well – will also be present in Qatar. Mancini will return to rely on Donnarumma in the goal, in the axis Bonucci-Chiellini in defense, on Jorginho, Veratti and Barella in the middle.

He will also try to recover players who were part of the national team and who subsequently did not participate in the European expedition for various reasons, including injuries. The eyes fixed in this speech, for example on Pellegrini, Sensi, Zaniolo, Lazzari, Kean e Tonali.

The last Europeans were broadcast with a formula now consolidated in our country. Rai for part of the matches e Sky for the integral manifestation.

But what is the situation of TV rights for the Qatar World Cup 2022. In addition, a very attractive world championship on television and listening since it is played in winter and with schedules in the afternoon and evening. At the moment, the 2022 World Cup in Qatar revolves around Rai. Public television holds the broadcasting rights for the entire event.

For now, Rai has the option of deciding how to move: whether it is to keep the whole event to yourself or to keep around thirty games and give away a bundle of games for broadcast on pay television. Obviously there is at the window Amazon e Sky.

Amazon enters football in force from next September with the exclusive broadcast of the most interesting Wednesday matches of the Champions League.

Sky obviously on the basis of a consolidated tradition for these events she could be interested. Rai this way could fall from a part of the funds spent on the purchase of rights.

The fact that you are in a strategic and commercially strong period like November and December will be a factor that all stakeholders will carefully consider when deciding what to do.
