They will acquire the BT rights - particularly Premier League, Champions League and Premiership Rugby.
I seem to recall that Sky have to agree any sale of BT sports rights - anyone confirm this and have sky agreed?

Far from being easy to pick off rights as values fall and have customers swarm across it now appears to be challenging to the extent it is worth buying one of the incumbents, their customer base and fundamentally in the short to medium term their viable business model.

No news yet on if DAZN will keep all the BT Sports Channel slots or move everything to DAZN streaming Service.
If DAZN axe BT's EPG Slots it will be goodbye from me to UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and WWE (I have been watching WWF/WWE since 1990.)
