Virgin Media, meanwhile, say they are ‘currently working with Uefa to finalise an extensive range of rights’.
PREMIER SPORTS will have the first choice of Tuesday’s Champions League games in Ireland from next season onwards, a move which will take a number of high-profile fixtures off free-to-air TV.
Meanwhile, Virgin Media, who are expected to show over 160 games from the competition, this afternoon told The 42: “We are currently working with Uefa to finalise an extensive range of rights for the Uefa Champions League Seasons 2024/25 to 2027/28 and will be in a position to make an announcement soon.”
The first-choice Tuesday slot is particularly coveted among Irish broadcasters over the next three seasons given the new makeup of the British TV rights deal. TNT Sports, formerly BT Sports, have retained the Wednesday game as well as the rest of the rights to the Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League.
