The A-League could be headed to ABC if speculation in The Australian proves correct.

Rumours suggest that while FOX Sports will continue to broadcast all A-League, W-League, Socceroos and Matildas matches none of the commercial FTA networks bid for the rights with the Football Federation of Australia.

The Australian suggests a new deal with the ABC will see an A-League game broadcast on ABC at 5pm on Saturday while the W-League would return to the network at 4pm on Sundays under a possible two-year deal.

This would also put ABC in the running to pick up free-to-air rights for Socceroos qualifiers and the Matildas international friendlies.
