Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, the Minister of Sports, calls for “not to panic”. But the Women’s World Cup starts in less than two months in Australia and New Zealand (July 20-August 20) and it still has no broadcaster in France. Ubuesque. This does not yet worry the Minister of Sports, who wants to be reassuring. This Sunday, May 21, in the program “Political Questions” co-broadcast on France Inter, franceinfo channel 27 and Le Monde, she affirms “I make the commitment that there will be a retransmission”.
She recalls, in passing, that other European countries (Italy, Spain, Germany) also do not yet have a broadcaster: “It will come, assures the minister. There is still a little time. There are structural difficulties because this is a file where the time of year, from July 20 to August 20, is not great. It was unfortunately postponed by Fifa, in the name of the Club World Cup which did not take place (initially scheduled for June, it will be held in December, editor’s note). It’s still not terrible. The schedules are not very favorable, because there will be meetings at 10 o’clock. Fortunately, there are several matches of the France team which will take place at noon. »
Amélie Oudéa-Castéra also wants to put French broadcasters before their responsibilities, in order to find a solution as quickly as possible. “Our broadcasters must, as they have promised to me, go there in favor of women’s football and, no doubt, raise their offers a little bit so that everyone does a part of the way, even if the way to be made by one and the other party is probably not quite equivalent. I have confidence in the broadcasters, I have exchanged with a certain number of them already. »
