El Chiringuito moves to Mediaset, launch set

Entities: Energy · Mediaset España · Josep Pedrerol · El Chiringuito · Cuatro

Overview

Following Josep Pedrerol’s farewell broadcast on 20 July 2026, Mediaset España announced that his sports‑talk show “El Chiringuito” will debut on 17 August, airing Monday‑Thursday on the Energy channel and on Sundays on Cuatro, timed with the start of the La Liga season. The full production team has transferred from Atresmedia, preserving the debate‑driven format and regular panel.

Pedrerol confirmed that the deal was sealed in April with a handshake after a lunch with Mediaset CEO Alessandro Salem, and that about 70 staff members will move with him. Three new hires were introduced for the programme, and content director Jaime Guerra described the acquisition as a strategic boost for Mediaset’s sports offering. Reports of Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez facilitating the move remain unverified. Analysts view the transfer as strengthening Mediaset’s late‑night sports‑talk slate.

The debut will be produced from a newly built studio. Pedrerol said three new on‑air personalities will join the veteran panel, though their names were not disclosed. The refreshed format will mix established journalists such as Matías Prats Jr. and Elena G. Durán with digital creators popular on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, aiming to attract younger viewers while retaining the midnight debate style.

The launch schedule and channel placement clarify Mediaset’s late‑night sports‑talk strategy and reinforce its position in Spain’s sports‑entertainment market.
