CAA Eleven is said to be offering rights for a minimum of $5 million.

Interest in the match and the price for rights would, of course, be higher were Brazil themselves competing in it, but there is expected to be interest nonetheless due to the novelty of the tie and the involvement of South American compatriots Argentina. There is also the potential for Brazil to be involved in the second edition.
