​Serie A assign domestic broadcasting rights to Mediapro

Lega Serie A, the organising body of the top division of Italian club football, has accepted an offer for its domestic broadcast rights from the Mediapro agency, reports SportBusiness.

The Lega confirmed the news in a brief statement issued following a meeting on Monday morning. The Lega said the Spanish agency has made an offer worth €1,050,001,000 ($1.28bn) per season, exceeding the minimum revenue target of €1.05bn ($1.26bn) that had been set.

The Lega will now take the offer, for the three seasons spanning 2018-19 to 2020-21, to the Italian antitrust authority before it can proceed with officially assigning the rights.
