The move behind EPL’S $7 billion broadcasting deal extension

English Premier League soccer clubs have renewed their existing UK broadcast deals to avoid money loss.

The English Premier League soccer championship has agreed a proposal for a three-year renewal of U.K. live and non-live broadcast agreements with Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime Video and BBC Sport.

EPL has signed with the major networks from 2022-2025 to avoid an auction process that could have lost them money.

Skipping the auction will be a relief to England’s top 20 clubs as revenues from domestic broadcast rights deals were expected to fall.

Premier League chief executive said the deal would play a major role in a return to normality for the competition and clubs.

The rights deal worth £5 billion ($7 billion) was agreed in 2018.
