OTHER Both Proximus and Telenet do not accept that the competition stop. The Pro League is closing the National Securiti Council ban on no returning money from television. Telecommunications operators are now looking to initiate arbitrations proceedings.

This is the last installement of 23 millions euros that was still paid to the Pro League just before outbreak of the corona crisis.

In particular, the fact that soccer is still played abroad is cited by both operators as a breaking point. "We see that football is still played in other parts of Europe. From July onwards that was also allowed in Belgium. Ending the full play-offs would no longer be possible, but the could have shown a little more creativity to have something play", said Proximus.

Telente also follows this opinion and examines whether it can initiate proceedings at the Center of Arbitration and Mediation. Meanwhile, tlaks with rights holder Eleven, about the next season games are also ongoing. The contract between Pro League and Eleven is not yet signed, but that would change this week.
