UK pay-television broadcaster Sky has extended its rights agreement for LaLiga, the top division of Spanish football.
The
new deal for the UK and Ireland is for three years, covering the
2015-16 to 2017-18 seasons, and takes Sky’s partnership with LaLiga into
its 20th year.
Sky will show more than 100 LaLiga matches per season, along with the final of the Copa del Rey knockout cup competition.
The
renewal comes despite UK media reports this week that Sky had withdrawn
from the tender to secure LaLiga rights, clearing the way for rival BT
Sport to add the Spanish top flight to a European football portfolio
including the German Bundesliga, Italian Serie A and French Ligue 1.
LaLiga
matches will predominantly air on Sky Sports 5 - the channel launched
by Sky last year to showcase its European football content
