Foxtel has appealed to sports lovers by enhancing its existing sports subscription packs, with the addition of new free-of-charge app BeIN Sports Connect.

Foxtel states the move will cater to the trend of sports fans becoming increasingly focused on the mobile platform.

Foxtel’s General Manager of Sport Partnerships, Leah O’Gorman, states:

“The addition of BeIN Sports Connect to our existing sports app line up, including the Fox Sports app and WatchESPN, maximises the value of a Foxtel sports subscription and keeps fans in the game regardless of whether they’re in the living room, on vacation, or taking a sneaky look during their lunch break.”

BeIN Sports Connect will provide linear streams of BeIN Sports 1, BeIN Sports 2 and BeIN Sports 3 channels, in addition to providing access to extra games inclusive of the UEFA Champions League, La Liga games, every UEFA Europa League game, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1.

The new app will offer users 24/7 access to each channel, plus catch up games and highlight shows.
