The sale of BT Sport to streaming giant DAZN has moved a step closer, according to reports.
Last month the news agency Reuters reported that a £583m deal was in the offing for the sale of the BT Sport business and its 52 Premier League matches a season, of which Everton and Liverpool are regular features.
Now, according to a report in The Times, the deal has moved even closer to completion with BT Sport contacting the Premier League to seek its approval for the sale.
