BT Sport has signed a deal to broadcast the European Rugby Champions Cup and the European Rugby Challenge Cup live.
The new deal, starting from the 2018/19 season, will see BT Sport show the matches until at least 2021/22.
There will be up to 134 matches over nine weekends broadcast in both competitions and will be shown live on BT Sport.
Since launching in 2013, BT Sport has broadcast live Aviva Premiership Rugby and is currently broadcasting up to 69 matches per season and has extended highlights rights for all 135 matches in the competition.
Andy Haworth, BT’s managing director of content and strategy, said: “BT Sport is now the home of elite European rugby, as well as the home of Aviva Premiership Rugby. We’re proud to have won all of the live rights for this fantastic competition.”
