Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Think this is not unexpected. Can't see them not allowing it given the wealth of players in the market and that BT Sport is loss-making

CMA to probe Discovery-BT Sport tie-up
The Competition and Markets Authority has opened an investigation into the anticipated joint venture between Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and BT for the operation of the BT Sport channels.
It will study whether the venture would lead to a “substantial lessening of competition”.
The CMA has advised both BT and Discovery of its plans. The initial Phase 1 period will complete by 28 July 2022, when a decision on whether to refer the merger for a Phase 2 investigation will be made.
