This report indicates that, as with the recent Euro 2012 football championships, True Visions also have no deal to show the next World Cup - "We're also planning for the long term as we hold the rights to broadcast Fifa World Cup, which will be held in Brazil in 2014," and 'The chief executive said RS is willing to negotiate with cable and satellite operators including TrueVisions over the broadcast rights for La Liga football and the 2014 World Cup'.
