EA Sports and Premier League Renew Deal Long Term

Nov 15, 2018

The Premier League and EA Sports have reportedly renewed their partnership, which includes sponsoring as well as licensing for the FIFA series, until the end of the 2024-25 season.

The current deal was set to expire at the end of the current season. While the renewal will certainly come with a hefty increase in the yearly sum paid to the league by EA, no details were stated in the article by SportBusiness, who broke the story.

As before, EA, developer and publisher of the FIFA series, will continue to be the biggest single brand sponsor of the Premier League. The yearly sum is split half-half between licensing and sponsoring according to the report.

All of this means that Konami's PES will not include the Premier League for at least another 6 editions - even if still exists at that point.
