The Premier League is set to air on a brand new TV channel as of next season following a set of changes at BT Sport after their takeover by Warner Bros Discovery last September. The American company look set to make a host of changes in the summer, which looks set to rearrange the number of channels currently used as well as a potential merger with another.
BT has shown Premier League matches since 2013, broadcasting 52 live games for the current 2022/23 season, with their TV rights deal running until 2025. According to the Daily Mail, changes are set to merge BT Sport with Eurosport - also owned by Warner Bros Discovery - with plans to add all their live sports together.
A holding company has been set up called Warner Brothers Discovery Sport, which is likely to feature in new channels’ branding and a rebranding for BT Sport. It remains to be seen how that will possibly change the subscription package currently being offered for the service.
