The Premier League hopes that a radical reshaping of the way they sell their TV rights from 2025 will push annual TV income — domestic and overseas combined — up towards £4billion PER YEAR, and certainly higher than the current £3.47bn a year.
While one digital streamer — Amazon Prime — might leave the picture, more of which shortly, at least one other, DAZN, is definitely entering the bidding.
The £3.47bn current figure is already massively higher than any other football league in the world. It is made up of the £1.7bn per year currently earned from Sky, TNT Sports (formerly BT), Amazon Prime, and the BBC for Match of the Day, plus £1.
