Sky Sports secures three-year extended highlights deal

Sky Sports seals a three-year deal to broadcast extended highlights of every Premier League game.

Sky Sports has sealed a three-year contract to show extended highlights of Premier League games.

Until 2019, the broadcaster has the rights to show highlights of all 212 top-flight fixtures that are not aired live on television.

For the first time, viewers will be given the option to watch the highlights on demand, with one Saturday game available in full from 8pm and all other matches shown from 10.30pm.

Sky Sports managing director Barney Francis said: "Sky Sports has never been in a stronger position with this deal cementing our position as the first choice for sports fans.

"It completes the set and is more good news for Sky Sports viewers having already secured more live Premier League matches from the 2016-17 season, as well as clips from every match available on mobile and online. We are giving fans more ways to watch extended highlights, with the content now available on demand in the individual club section so fans can catch up on the action when they want."

News, views and match action will also be available in a dedicated section for every Premier League club.
