Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Will be interesting to see how this pans out:
Quote:
The 20 teams in Serie A, Italy’s top league, will vote on Friday whether to give its biggest TV contract to internet group DAZN or accept a lower offer from longtime television partner Sky. The chosen broadcaster will screen the lion’s share of its football matches between 2021 and 2024.

DAZN, a streaming service backed by billionaire Leonard Blavatnik, has offered around €840m a season for the contract, according to people briefed on the process. Comcast-owned Sky is prepared to pay just €750m a season to remain the competition’s main broadcaster.

The bids were lodged earlier this year, but clubs are divided on which to choose. By law, Serie A must decide by Monday or the auction will be void, forcing the league to begin the sale process again.

“It’s a car crash,” said a person with direct knowledge of the process.
