Football fans in the United States will continue to enjoy English Premier League games on NBC, USA Network, Peacock, Telemundo and Universo, as the English top-flight has extended its working relationship with NBCUniversal for the next six years.
The deal will see the English top-flight's broadcasts being covered by this company in the United States for the past fifteen years, one of the longest working relationships the league has signed over the world.
Peter Bevacqua of NBC Sports shared his enthusiasm for extending this deal with one of the most exciting football competitions in the globe.
"We are excited to come to this long-term extension with the Premier League. Our Premier League team, led by Jon Miller, has been incredibly dedicated to growing the Premier League in the United States over the last nine years. This new agreement is also a testament to the hard work of production, marketing and other areas of our company, as well as the tremendous partnership that has been established with the leadership and club owners of the Premier League," the Chairman for NBC Sports stated.
The deal will see NBCUniversal presenting all 380 matches of the competition, adding content across all of its channels and social media platforms. NBC Sports made its debut on NBC Sports in 2013, and this deal will see the tournament being aired in the United States by this company until the end of the 2027-28 season.
Premier League executive Richard Masters commented further on the deal that will bring football fans in the U.S. closer to the top-tier football category in England.
"We are delighted to announce our new US broadcast deal with NBC Sports, who have been brilliant partners for the Premier League over the last nine seasons. NBC Sports has significantly strengthened the popularity of the League in the United States in that time through its fantastic coverage and promotion," the Premier League's Chief Executive added.
