Sky Sports and TNT Sports win rights to broadcast live Premier League football

The Premier League has announced new TV rights deal with Sky Sports, TNT Sports and the BBC.

The new agreements will cover the four-year period starting with the 2025/26 season.

Sky Sports has been awarded live rights packages B, C, D and E, covering a minimum of 215 live matches per season, which will include more than 140 matches played at weekends, evening matches on Fridays and Mondays, and full coverage of three midweek match rounds.

For the first time, Sky Sports will also broadcast all 10 matches on the final day of each season.

Amazon Prime, who currently shows 20 games per season, will lose their rights to air live Premier League football from 2025.

TNT Sports has been awarded live rights package A, covering 52 live matches per season, including exclusive coverage of matches played on Saturdays at 12.30pm and full coverage of two midweek match rounds.

For the first time in the UK, all matches taking place outside of the Saturday 3pm “closed period”, including those displaced to Sunday 2pm because of club participation in European competitions, will be broadcast live.

BBC Sport has been awarded highlights rights for all 380 Premier League matches each season, with additional digital rights for the BBC’s online platforms.

The agreement will see BBC Match of the Day continue to bring Premier League action to millions of viewers each week, alongside a full range of additional programming.
