History

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.

On May 7, 2019, Univision has announced that they'll form a partnership with Grupo Televisa and rename Univision Deportes to TUDN. The new branding is a combination of abbreviations TDN and UDN, but the first two letters are also pronounced as the Spanish adjective "tu" (your), allowing the name to also be read as "Tu deportes network" ("Your sports network"). TUDN will be promoted as a multi-platform brand, and there will be closer collaboration between the American and Mexican counterparts—allowing for expanded studio programming in the morning and daytime hours (to bolster its expansion into European soccer with its recent acquisition of UEFA rights, and existing content such as Liga MX soccer). The rebranding took place on July 20 with a new slate of content built around live programming. UDN and Univision Deportes Radio were also renamed in line with this rebranding.[5][6][7][8]
