Netflix to create its first sports docuseries on LaLiga

It will focus on the 2023-2024 LaLiga competition.

Mumbai :LaLiga is decided on the football field, but it is also played off the field: on match days, in the locker rooms, in the stands, and nearby. The first sports series produced by Netflix in Spain will revolve around LaLiga.

The documentary series, which is currently in pre-production, will focus on the 2023-2024 LaLiga competition and will premiere on Netflix worldwide next year. The series will take an inside look at everything that happens in the Professional Football League behind the scenes and the more personal stories of one of the world's most followed leagues, similar to Netflix's growing slate of sports programming such as Formula 1: Drive to Survive and Break Point.

LaLiga executive director Óscar Mayo said,  "For LaLiga, to be the star of Netflix's first sports series in Spain is a unique opportunity to take our football beyond the fans, to share with the world the excitement of the sport we love, and the chance for all our fans to see LaLiga from a totally different angle." 

Director Álvaro Díaz said, "At Netflix, we have always been committed to bringing must watch series and films to our members around the world. We are very proud and excited to share this project with LaLiga, which is an unprecedented opportunity to experience the excitement of one of the most exciting sporting competitions on the planet, first-hand."
