Premier Sports acquired the LaLiga Santander broadcasting rights for the UK and Ireland, starting with Matchday 25 of the 2018-19 season, which begins on 22/02/2019, stated the UK pay-TV group 21/02/2019.

"The broadcaster will air four games per round across Premier Sports 1 and 2 via Sky, Virgin and the Premier Player online. Premier Sports will also broadcast the weekly magazine programs LaLiga World and the LaLiga Show as well as a weekly highlights show featuring all the action from every game," said the group that now shares the rights to the LaLiga Santander with the British OTT platform Eleven Sports (see below).

"This announcement follows Premier Sports’ recent acquisitions of Italian Serie A, Dutch Eredivisie and the Chinese Super League with at least 14 live football games expected to air across the network every weekend," added the group that has recovered a portion of the rights acquired by Eleven Sports via IMG (Serie A TIM and Eredivisie) on 30/01/2019.
