Belgian Pro League branding and broadcast developments
Overview
On 29 July 2026 the Belgian Pro League announced two major initiatives aimed at modernising the competition. First, the league unveiled a new house style, replacing its fifty‑year‑old logo with a design featuring a ball on a field and stylised tribunes, alongside the slogan “Live The Game”. The rebrand is intended to give Belgian professional football a contemporary look while honouring its history.
Later the same day, the league resolved a long‑running legal dispute with broadcaster DAZN by signing a new partnership agreement that extends their collaboration until 2030. The deal provides stability for broadcast rights after DAZN had terminated its previous €84.2 million‑per‑year contract, citing commercial challenges. Both parties said the agreement will improve the fan experience, increase visibility of Belgian football and support clubs, sponsors and players.
Together, the branding rollout and the broadcast partnership signal a coordinated effort by the Pro League to refresh its public image and secure long‑term media stability.
