South African pay TV channel Multichoice have confirmed that it’s SuperSport channels will not show the upcoming TotalEnergies AFCON in Ivory. 

Following CAF’s decision to award New World TV exclusive rights for Sub-Saharan Africa have left many Dstv subscribers in Limbo as they had hope that that SuperSport will beam the games live.

Multichoice confirmed the development in a statement saying: “SuperSport Channel will not broadcast the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2023 scheduled for January 13th – February 11th, 2024, because the channel has not secured the rights to broadcast the tournament.

“However, AFCON 2023 games will be available through our partner broadcast stations on Free to Air (FTA) channels.

“Multichoice Africa remains committed to ensuring football fans across Africa continue to enjoy unrivalled access to entertainment and football games available on DStv and GOtv platforms including, the Premier League, LaLiga, Serie A, Zambian Super League and many more of football’s most prestigious competitions.”
