English Football League Signs Radio Deals With talkSPORT, BBC

The English Football League announced three-year deals for national radio rights with talkSPORT and the BBC, according to the SWINDON ADVERTISER. The current agreements "are set to expire" at the end of the playoffs. Under the new deal, which the governing body describes as "a significant increase on the combined rights fee" over the previous terms, talkSPORT will broadcast "exclusive live commentary" across the EFL and playoffs next season, up to a maximum of 92 League Championship fixtures, as well as the EFL Trophy. The BBC will "share non-exclusive rights for live matches" in the newly-sponsored Carabao Cup, including the final. Both broadcasters will provide "score flash updates" across all three EFL divisions, the Carabao Cup and the EFL Trophy (SWINDON ADVERTISER, 5/25).
