Premier League eyes $2bn US television rights deal

Under the deal, which will be functional from the 2022-23 season until the 2027-28 season, Premier League will sell all 38 matches in a single block rather than in separate packages.

The English Premier League is reportedly nearing the sale of its US television rights for about $2bn (€1.75bn), setting a new overseas record.

ViacomCBS and Walt Disney Co-owned ESPN are among the broadcasters bidding for the rights with Comcast's NBC, the current holder, with second-round bids due on Thursday.
