Sports media company ESPN and the National Football League are close to finalising a new media rights deal worth nearly $2 billion per year, Street & Smith's Sports Business Daily reported on Thursday.
ESPN, a unit of Walt Disney Co, has told the US sports league it will increase its annual rights fee 40%, meaning it will pay the NFL a record fee of between $1.8 billion and $1.9 billion, the industry trade publication said, citing multiple anonymous sources.
