Can you watch MLS in Germany for free or cheaply in 2026? Here are legal streaming sites, Apple TV prices, free-match options, and tips.

Can You Watch MLS in Germany for Free or Cheap

For fans in Germany, Major League Soccer (MLS) becomes easier to follow in 2026 because the league’s viewing model is now simple: MLS is bundled into an Apple TV subscription worldwide.

The key question is cost: Is there a legal way to watch MLS in Germany for free, or at least cheaply?

This guide explains the official, Germany-relevant options, what’s actually free, what’s low-cost, and the exact websites to use.

Is there a completely free, legal way to watch every MLS match in Germany?

No. There is no legal German service that streams every MLS match for free.

But you can watch some MLS content free, and you can get full-season access at a relatively low monthly price via Apple TV.

Free and legal ways to watch MLS in Germany (limited)

Free featured matches on Apple TV (selected games)

Apple has repeatedly made certain MLS events and some matches available without paying, depending on the week and programming (think “featured/free matches,” not the whole league). A clear example: Apple streamed MLS Cup free on Apple TV (a precedent for free access to marquee games).

Where to check/watch (Germany):

Apple TV Germany: https://tv.apple.com/de MLS hub on Apple TV (often auto-localises): https://tv.apple.com/channel/mls/tvs.sbd.7000

(That MLS link may redirect by region; if it does, search “MLS” inside Apple TV.)

Limitations

Only selected matches/events
Not reliable if you follow one club closely

Highlights and clips (free, but not full live matches)

If you only want goals and recaps, MLS publishes a lot of free short-form content.

Official sources:

MLS official site: https://www.mlssoccer.com MLS YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MLS

Limitations

Great for highlights
Not the place for full live match streaming

The cheapest legal way to watch all MLS matches in Germany

Apple TV subscription (full coverage)

Starting in 2026, every MLS match is included with an Apple TV subscription — there is no separate MLS Season Pass fee anymore.

Apple TV price in Germany

Apple’s Germany pages show €9.99/month (often with a free trial for new subscribers).

Where to subscribe (Germany):

Subscribe / watch Apple TV (DE): https://tv.apple.com/de Apple TV

subscription help (DE): https://support.apple.com/de-de/118404

Apple ID sign-in: https://appleid.apple.com

Why this matters in Germany

Apple TV is effectively the only complete, reliable home for MLS live matches internationally from 2026.

What about Sky, DAZN, MagentaTV, or German broadcasters?

For MLS specifically, Germany’s mainstream sports platforms are not positioned as the “full MLS home” in 2026 the way Apple TV is. The Apple/MLS announcement makes the model explicit: MLS is included for Apple TV subscribers without extra cost.

You may still see occasional MLS-related content (news, clips, social coverage), but if your goal is “I want every match,” Apple TV is the practical answer.

Cost vs value snapshot (Germany, 2026)

Apple TV’s key advantage is that it’s both the complete option and the lowest-cost complete option.

Cost vs value snapshot

Smart ways to watch MLS for less in Germany

• Watch every week: Apple TV monthly, or consider annual billing if it saves you money (varies by region/offers).

• Watch occasionally: check Apple TV for free featured matches + watch highlights elsewhere

• Avoid illegal streams: unstable quality + security risks (and not worth it when the official price is comparatively low)
