DAZN Group, the global sports entertainment company, is announcing today the launch of The DAZN Soccer Show – its first ever global show covering all aspects of the beautiful game. With daily content drops featuring in-depth interviews with a multitude of high-profile faces from the sport on everything from the biggest headlines to insider minutiae, The DAZN Soccer Show will establish DAZN as a daily destination for men’s and women’s soccer fans around the world.
The DAZN Soccer Show makes its world premiere today (11:00am PT / 2:00pm ET / 19:00 BST / 20:00 CET) and will be available on DAZN in 200+ countries and territories including the U.S., UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia, India, Brazil, Indonesia, Thailand, Mexico, South Africa, and France.
The DAZN Soccer Show will be hosted by award-winning British presenter, YouTuber, and radio personality Ade Oladipo. Most known for being the co-host of ‘The DAZN Boxing Show’ as well as featuring on DAZN’s live boxing broadcasts, Oladipo is one of the brightest new voices in the space and will infuse the program with his seasoned expertise and unique style and flair.
“We are proud to launch The DAZN Soccer Show, one of the only truly global daily shows in the sport that will make DAZN a must-have for nonstop news, insights, and expert opinions on all things men’s and women’s soccer. Notably, it marks DAZN’s second daily global sports show, following in the footsteps of The DAZN Boxing Show that has quickly become a can’t-miss for fight fans worldwide,” said Joseph Markowski, EVP at DAZN Group. “As DAZN continues on an exciting path towards becoming a daily destination for sports fans worldwide, we are thrilled The DAZN Soccer Show will now further solidify the platform as a daily global destination for one of the biggest and most passionate fanbases out there – footy fanatics.”
“The DAZN Soccer Show has finally dropped and it’s going to be fun, it’s going to be fresh, and it’s going to be nonstop informative. I’m ready to bring the energy and daily interviews from the biggest faces in the sport and beyond to soccer fans on DAZN worldwide,” said Oladipo. “From the Premier League to the UEFA Women’s Champions League, Serie A to the FIFA Men’s and Women’s World Cup, the show will cover it all – all things men’s and women’s soccer, all the latest headlines, all the drama, and with a fully global perspective.”
The first show drops this week – just ahead of the Premier League 2022-23 season kick-off – will feature interviews with legends from the league talking about their favorite players to watch, predictions for the season, and other hot topics. Initial guests include Michael Owen (former striker for Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Manchester United), Paul Robinson (former goalkeeper for Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur), and Andy Cole (the third-highest goal scorer in Premier League history, most remembered for his time with Manchester United). Oladipo will also be getting into it with former head coach of the Canada national women’s team and current head coach of the Canada national men’s team John Herdman, as well as transfer guru David Ornstein.
Coming up later this week will be a drop looking back at the historic 2022 UEFA Women's Euro championship and sensational win by England’s national team, the Lionesses. Beginning in late August, fans can expect a weekend review show with new content from this dropping every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Additionally, a weekend preview show will have daily drops every Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Fans around the world can watch The DAZN Soccer Show on DAZN anywhere on any device, including smart TVs, PCs, mobile phones, tablets and game consoles. New subscribers to DAZN can download the app and/or sign up at www.DAZN.com.
