The social media network is said to have outbid giants like BeIn Sports and Fox Sports Asia for all 380 fixtures over three Premier League seasons, starting in 2019/20. The amount paid was £200 million ($265 million), according to The Times. The U.K. newspaper wrote that YouTube and Netflix were also interested in some of the EPL’s international rights.
