Apple, DAZN, Sky Sports - TV and streaming giants who could show Premier League football
19.10.2023 - 12:19 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Streaming giants Apple and DAZN could enter the race for live Premier League football ahead of a new top-flight TV deal being agreed.
The tender process for a four-year domestic broadcast deal for Premier League fixtures has started. It will see around 270 games shown live in the UK, an increase of 70, across five packages - down from the current seven.
Currently the bulk of live games are on Sky Sports with TNT Sports and Amazon Prime also having rights. But that could change come the new deal ahead of the 2025-26 season.

A minimum of two broadcasters will be able to hold the rights and Sky and TNT are expected to retain the primetime weekend packages. But there is uncertainty as to whether Amazon will stump up for a package and that could open the door for Apple or DAZN.
The latter could seek to move in for the midweek games currently shown on Amazon over the festive period. DAZN broadcast the Premier League in Spain and the women’s Champions League in the UK as well as showing a host of other sports including boxing.
Apple may also explore the option of securing a package having signed a 10-year deal in the US to show every MLS game live.
DAZN costs £9.99 a month or £99.99 a year with a flexible pass available for £19.99 a month. A monthly Apple subscription is £6.99 per month. Should either of those broadcasters secure a package the costs would be on top of Sky Sports and TNT Sports subscriptions given they are expected to retain live rights. Amazon Prime is £8.99 a month.
