NBC Retains U.S. Premier League Broadcast Rights in Deal Worth Over $2 Billion

NBC will remain the Premier League's broadcast home in the United States after winning a competitive bid process by reportedly offering more than $2 billion for the next six years. The Times (U.K.) reports it could be for as much as $2.6 billion.

NBC, which has aired Premier League games since 2013 and will now do so through the 2027-28 season, beat out the likes of ESPN and CBS, among other bidders, and will also have exclusive Spanish broadcast rights. ESPN and CBS reportedly made a joint bid, while Fox, Amazon and WarnerMedia were among the six outlets asked to submit second bids last week, according to Sports Business Journal.
