A person familiar with the deal says NBC will continue to broadcast England’s Premier League with a bid of more than $2.7 billion over six years. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the financial terms were confidential. NBC has been the home of what is considered the world’s top soccer league since 2013, but it faced heavy competition from CBS and ESPN, who put in a joint offer during the second round of bidding. Fox put in a bid during the second round. NBC’s previous six-year deal, which began in 2016, was worth $1 billion.
