The Premier League is reportedly seeking to roll over its existing domestic TV rights deal, in a bid to shore up its financial position given its losses during the pandemic

A rollover would delay the risk of significant long-term deflation in the value of these rights, buying the Premier League greater financial certainty and time

For Sky, BT and Amazon, a deal could provide even better value, and would delay any potentially-risky auction, closing the door to prospective newcomers
