MP & Silva to distribute SPL action

The MP & Silva agency has been appointed by the Scottish Premier League to distribute rights for the country’s top division of football in all overseas markets, excluding European Union territories.

The deal will run for nine years, from 2014-15 to 2022-23.

The package distributed by the agency will include all of the division’s live games – a minimum of 55 per season.

MP & Silva will be the exclusive distributor of the division’s live media rights across cable, satellite, terrestrial, betting, mobile and internet platforms, apart from those retained by club channels from the start of the 2014-15 season.
