The French channel M6 announced that it will broadcast the final of the Africa Cup of Nations 2025 (CAN 2025) for free and openly (en clair), which brings together the Moroccan national team and the Senegalese team.
The match will take place on Sunday, January 18, 2026, at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat. This exceptional step comes after a sub-license agreement signed by beIN Sports, which holds the exclusive broadcasting rights for the entire tournament in France, with the M6 group.
Thus, the general public in France can follow the major event without a subscription, while beIN Sports retains the paid broadcasting rights for the match itself.
- Morocco, the host country, aspires to win the continental title for the second time in its history (after 1976), in front of its fans in Rabat, benefiting from stars like Achraf Hakimi and Brahim Diaz.
- Senegal, the 2021 champion led by Sadio Mané, seeks to achieve its second title and reinforce its recent dominance in African football, despite the absence of some key players due to suspension (such as Kalidou Koulibaly).
This final has caused a significant adjustment in M6’s programming on Sunday, as some popular programs like “19h45” and “E=M6” were canceled to make way for this exceptional sporting event.
