The Premier League TV Rights Explosion: Record-Breaking Deals and Future Domination

2023-12-04 22:16:00

In the previous rights exploitation period, the German record amount of 1.16 billion euros per season flowed to the DFL and its clubs.

Thanks to the deal close to the two billion euro barrier with the pay TV channels “Sky Sports” and “TNT Sports” as well as the public broadcaster “BBC” for free TV, the already strongest league in European professional football is likely to have its own Continuing to cement dominance in the future.

The Premier League also generated additional income by changing its contract period from the previous three years to four years in the future. The TV contract, which runs until summer 2025, has a total volume of 5.5 billion euros or 1.83 billion euros annually.

From 2025 onwards, of the total 380 league games in a season, at least 267 matches can be watched live on pay television on the island – at least 215 on “Sky Sports” and a fixed 52 on “TNT Sports”.

Increase in the value of live rights by four percent

The live share therefore formally corresponds to a quota of initially 70 percent of all games. According to the Premier League, the new scope of the contract means a four percent increase in the value of the live rights.

For the first time, the entire live offering also includes all matches outside of the classic season on Saturday followingnoons at 3:00 p.m. local time (also 2:00 p.m. before European Cup games).

In addition, in the four seasons from 2025, all ten matches on the 38th and final matchday will be broadcast live on pay TV for the first time – Sky Sports secured the contract for these rights.

The BBC once once more secured the rights to highlight recaps of all 380 matches on free-to-air television.
