Premier League Eyes Biggest Ever TV Rights Deal By Selling 70 More Matches
The Premier League is aiming to smash its own record domestic television rights deal after making 70 more matches available for broadcast from 2025. Currently, 200 matches per season are sold to broadcasters in the UK with the three-year deal that runs until the 2024/25 season worth a reported 4.8 billion pounds ($5.8 billion). A Saturday afternoon blackout, designed to protect attendances in the lower leagues, will remain. However, matches switched to Sundays due to the involvement of clubs in European fixtures will be broadcast live for the first time.
