    There are several other packages available. However, these focus more on English-language content, and don’t include TyC Sports, meaning you’d have to combine two. The Pro package ($74.99 per month) will give you a long list of soccer leagues from around the world, from the Premier League to La Liga, top flight action in Portugal to the Champions League and beyond, but you won’t be able to stream Argentine soccer without adding the Latino package as well.

    Cost wise, for English-language fans of Argentine soccer, Paramount+ is the only real option. However, it is reasonably priced and gives you a good amount of soccer outside of the division too. For Spanish-speaking fans, it’s all about finding the right package for you. 

    Sling TV will give you the most cost-effective package in terms of the amount of soccer you can watch outside of Argentina, but purchasing a Fanatiz subscription will give you the best dedicated coverage of Argentinian soccer, including the national team.
