Malta’s Go scores Premier League rights extension

Maltese telecommunications company Go has retained its rights to English Premier League football after agreeing a three-year deal running from 2013-14 to 2015-16.

Under the three-season contract, Go has secured the exclusive rights to 380 matches per year.

The contract includes the right to offer live, delayed and repeat transmissions of Premier League matches in English and Maltese on the Go Sports pay-television channels and over both digital terrestrial and IPTV platforms.

Go also said that it plans to exploit the live rights on a new mobile platform, which it plans to launch in the near future.
