The Premier League has agreed a new record £6.7bn domestic television deal for Sky and TNT to show 270 live games a season.

The deal includes the BBC continuing to show highlights on Match of the Day.

The top flight said the deal, which covers the four years from the 2025-26 season, is the "largest sports media rights deal ever concluded in the UK".

The Saturday afternoon 3pm blackout will remain in place, but every 2pm Sunday kick-off will be televised.

The BBC has also been awarded additional digital rights for its online platforms.
