Premier League TV Deal 2025-29

https://swissramble.substack.com/p/premier-league-tv-deal-2025-29

The Premier League has concluded the sale of its domestic TV rights for the 2025-29 cycle in what was described as the largest sports media rights deal ever concluded in the UK.

Chief Executive, Richard Masters, said, “We are delighted to announce new deals with Sky Sports and TNT Sports that will extend our partnership for a further four years and see more Premier League matches than ever before shown live from 2025/26 onwards.”

So the Premier League has basically renewed agreements with its trusted broadcast partners, as BBC Sports retained the free-to-air highlights package, so “Match of the Day” is safe.

Deal Value

The Premier League said that the new agreements would deliver a total of £6.7 bln in revenue across the four-year period, inclusive of a 4% increase in live rights value compared to the previous process.

Eagle-eyed observers will have noticed that the new deal has been extended from the usual three-year cycle to four years. The rationale for this change is to increase revenues in a challenging rights market and give greater certainty to both clubs and broadcast partners.

Domestic Rights Trend

The new deal was the first time that domestic TV rights had increased for a while, as the cost had decreased by 8% in the 2019-22 cycle from £5.3 bln to £4.9 bln before being rolled over in the current 2022-25 cycle, largely due to the COVID pandemic.

However, the huge £6.7 bln headline figure was a little misleading, as this covered a longer period of four years. If we were to pro-rate this to the customary three years, it would be worth “only” £5.1 bln, though that would still be 3% higher than the current £4.9 bln.

The total domestic deal includes £6.4 bln for live rights plus another £300m for the BBC highlights package, which was unchanged at £75m a year. The live rights have increased by 4% from £4.7 bln to a pro-rated £4.8 bln.

The new deal is pretty good, albeit not a patch on the glory days when the Premier League enjoyed exponential growth, rising by 64% (£1.2 bln) to £3.2 bln in 2013-16, then another 67% (£2.2 bln) in the following 2106-19 cycle.

On the other hand, as the infamous investment guru Jim Slater once said, “Elephants don’t gallop.”

Not me. I prefer every other option over them. Don't think Liverpool can do it tho with their defense and no proper DM. They been lucky with some wins.

They're seemingly the lesser evil. I'd rather they not make history with all the dodginess surrounding them.

In all fairness, it's rather a pathetic look for the league if the same team wins the PL 4 times in a row.

And not a good look for us if they match our CL record.

It's the only thing Chelsea has over City atm. Besides the record for least goals conceded in a season.

Yep...Arsenal why would I want another London club to win it sod that!! Liverpool...dont really like them lol..City just kinda there even if very dodgy...

Villa be the best of the bunch...but out of Liverpool and Arsenal guess Arsenal. Tbf they do deserve it after they've built them up to this side but even so...considering we're utterly shite atm and not likely to challenge for the title for years never mind win it..be nice also if they fail 🤣

It's a mixture of them breaking every rule under the sun to get a leg up over the competition and other sides choking when it really matters.

The sooner teams actually get punished for the corruption going around (even if that includes us, unfortunately), the better.
