Premier League & NBC agree new TV rights deal
The Premier League has announced a new deal with American broadcaster NBC Universal to show live games for the next six years.
US rights were already with NBC Universal at a price of $83m a season.
The Premier League has been negotiating its latest round of overseas television rights, having secured a record £5.1bn three-season domestic deal with BT Sport and Sky, which starts in 2016-17.
That dwarfs the existing £1bn-a-season agreement currently in place.
The new US agreement covers all Premier League matches in seasons 2016-17 to 2021-22.
Premier League chairman Richard Scudamore said NBC Universal's coverage of the previous two seasons had "driven interest in our clubs, and the competition as a whole, to unprecedented levels".
