Synopsis

Edit

TPG Capital-backed Integrated Media Company, a platform dedicated to the new media ecosystem, agreed to acquire a majority stake in Goal, a digital soccer brand, from DAZN Group, a British sports media company. Financial terms were not disclosed. "There are four billion soccer fans on earth. Their passion transcends borders and limits though the media serving them does not. Goal has long been an innately global platform for the soccer fan, with a strong journalistic tradition and a brand that’s synonymous with the sport. We see a significant opportunity to expand the platform’s reach and engagement through new content verticals, products, and experiences. We’re excited to partner with DAZN to serve all constituents in the soccer," Ori Winitzer, IMC Managing Director.
