Konami's focus for Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 will be to gain new licenses more than ever. Erik Bladinieres, Global Director of Konami's Football Division, revealed in an interview with PESaurios that Konami is set to sign new deals to include more licensed teams and leagues in PES 2016.
In the last few weeks there have been rumors that Konami could lose their exclusive UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League license. While Konami secured Europe's best club competitions for the first time in 2008, the deal was extended in 2012. Even though no contract details were disclosed at the time, it's very likely that the current Konami UEFA deal runs for four years until 2016.
