The Premier League's 'big six' clubs have won their battle to take a bigger share of the overseas TV rights.
The domestic TV cash has always been distributed on a meritocratic basis, depending on where clubs finish in the league but proceeds from foreign broadcasters have been shared equally since 1992.
In recent years, however, the league's top clubs - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham - have argued they should get more of the overseas income as they are the clubs foreign fans want to watch.
Any change to the Premier League's rules needs a two-thirds majority - at least 14 of the 20 clubs - and the big six failed to achieve this at a league shareholders' meeting in October - prompting fears the league's successful approach to selling its rights collectively was about to collapse, with some suggesting the big six could be tempted to form a European super league.
