Premier League rights deals go into extra time

League reportedly unlikely to announce deal until April

The Premier League has reportedly pushed its decision over the two unsold rights packages into April.

According to City AM, the League could be forced into making a “cut-price” deal for the remaining 40 games.

The Premier League announced it had sold five of its seven rights deals for the 2019-22 seasons to BT and Sky last month.

But the remaining two have yet to be sold, with some speculation Amazon is pondering a repackaged deal.

Analysts are now suggesting the two remaining packages are unlikely to fetch the £600 million which had previously been touted as the cost for the 40 games.
