Tottenham Hotspur announce Foxtel as official international
TOTTENHAM Hotspur fans will be able to enjoy the latest content from the club on Foxtel from the start of the 2016-17 season.
Spurs have signed a three-year partnership with Foxtel to become the Premier League team’s International Broadcast Partner in Australia for three years. The deal was announced in Melbourne prior to Tottenham’s International Champions Cup match against Juventus at the MCG.
It will see Fox Sports integrate a weekly three-hour programme featuring the latest Tottenham content (including the club’s matches) into their regular sports coverage as well as the addition of Spurs TV, which includes content and features from the club’s popular video service. Both the weekly programme and Spurs TV will be available to Foxtel residential and Foxtel Play subscribers on the sports pack.
