(ANSA) - Milan, June 13 - Sky and British-based sports media
group Perform have obtained TV broadcasting rights on Serie A
soccer matches over the next three seasons, Genoa Chairman
Enrico Preziosi said Wednesday.
Mediaset dropped out of the bidding process kicked off by the
Italian Serie A League for the 2018-2021 season rights,
according to the sources.
The new bidding round was organized after a contract giving
the rights to Spanish multimedia group Mediapro was cancelled in
May by a Milan judge who ruled that it breached anti-trust
regulations.
The contract had been challenged by Sky's Italian subsidiary.
Matches for the Serie A 2018 season were broadcast by Sky's
Italian arm and Mediaset's pay-Tv arm Premium.
The League is expected to assign the rights by the end of the
day.
