BT Sport extends Live Serie A football deal

BT Sport has extended its deal with MP&Silva for exclusively live Italian top flight football until 2017/18. The channels are the current home of exclusively live Serie A in the UK, and BT Sport is now adding another three years to the current deal.

BT Sport will have the rights to show up to 380 exclusively live matches a season.

Italian football fans can continue to enjoy watching clubs such as AC Roma and AC Milan attempting to wrestle the league title from current champions Juventus on BT Sport. This season, AS Roma and their legendary frontman Francesco Totti are chasing Juventus.

From August 2015, BT Sport will offer exclusively live midweek, top flight football action from the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League.

Simon Green, head of BT Sport, said: “Serie A attracts some of the best players in the world and is a fantastic, competitive league featuring some of the legendary teams of European folklore, such as Juventus, AC Milan, Inter and Roma.”
