The French subsidiary of the Swiss media rights and marketing agency Infront has extended its contract with the Premier League for the marketing of the English league's free-to-air broadcasting rights in sub-Saharan Africa over the 2022-2025 cycle, on 09/03/2021. Infront is already marketing these rights over the current cycle (2019-2022).

"The project will continue to be managed by Infront's fully established Africa division based in Paris and comes after it announced in September (2020) its broadest-ever coverage on free-to-air television for the Premier League in the region, with a 30% increase in broadcasters," said the Premier League.

"From September more than 25 broadcasters across over 20 territories have been showing one match a week on free-to-air television, expanding the footprint of the Premier League on the continent even further, including new agreements in places such as Benin, Botswana, Cameroon and Zambia," added the English league.
