"We are extremely pleased to begin this new partnership with CBS Sports which starts with our first ever Concacaf Nations League Finals and includes our game changing new women's national team competitions," said Concacaf General Secretary Philippe Moggio. "CBS Sports has an excellent track record of delivering outstanding live sports coverage, and their new Paramount+ platform is increasingly popular with fans. We look forward to working together to elevate men's and women's national team football in the Concacaf region."

CBS Sports begins coverage in June with the Concacaf Men's Nations League Finals in Denver. Additional coverage specifics around the June 3 Semifinal matches of United States vs. Honduras and Mexico vs. Costa Rica, along with details of the Final and Third-Place matches on June 6 will be announced in the coming weeks.

Following June's Finals, CBS Sports will continue coverage in future years with the 2022-2023 Concacaf Men's Nations League. CBS Sports will also showcase the inaugural Concacaf Women's Nations League beginning in 2023.

Details of CBS Sports' coverage of the Concacaf Women's World Cup Qualifiers will be announced ahead of competition beginning in Fall 2021.

CBS Sports Digital will deliver additional coverage and original programming and feature highlights across social channels and CBS Sports HQ, the 24/7 streaming sports news network.
