As talkSPORT expands from its UK base into Australia and the Asia Pacific region, it has announced another high profile rights deal and the launch date for its international broadcasts.
talkSPORT secured exclusive commercial radio rights to broadcast FA Cup matches for the first time in the UK and has also snared global rights for talkSPORT International. FA Cup broadcast rights were previously only held by the BBC.
The new international service, called talkSPORT Live, launches on the 18th of August, and will be able to offer access to the FA Cup matches as well as all Premier League games, with distribution via the internet, mobile apps and through international broadcast partners.
