Premier League Inks Record-Breaking £6.7B TV Rights Deal

Sky Sports and TNT Sports secure majority of live match broadcasts, while Amazon Prime exits bidding.

Premier League sells domestic TV rights for £6.7 billion ($8.4 billion) for the next four-year cycle, marking the largest sports media rights deal ever concluded in Britain.
Sky Sports secures four of the five packages on sale, guaranteeing a minimum of 215 live games per season, while TNT Sports will broadcast 52 matches.
All matches outside of Saturday 3pm kick-offs will be broadcast live in the UK for the first time.
Amazon Prime, which currently shows 20 matches per season, did not bid for any matches in the next cycle.
The new deal is expected to provide financial certainty for clubs throughout professional football until at least 2029.
