The Premier League are reportedly set to shake up their television rights in a move that could see 25 per cent more matches broadcast during the season.

Executives are expected to propose that four Premier League matches could be televised on Sunday afternoon, according to the Telegraph.

Matches would reportedly kick off on Sundays between noon and 6.30pm as part of the shake up.

The proposal comes as the Premier League faced pressure to scrap the 3pm blackout on Saturdays.

New kick-off times on Sunday, as well as additional Friday and Monday slots, would reportedly appease broadcasters and clubs.
