TNT Sports and Sky Sports have confirmed that the upcoming Manchester United vs Leicester City match will not be televised due to a scheduling conflict with other broadcasting rights and commitments. Both networks cited that the game, originally scheduled to be aired live, is part of a package of matches for which they do not hold exclusive broadcasting rights in the region.
The decision has come as a surprise to many fans, who were eagerly anticipating the showdown between two top-flight teams. The clash, expected to be a thrilling encounter, was initially expected to draw a large television audience, but these complications regarding broadcasting rights have led to its exclusion from both TNT Sports and Sky Sports’ schedules.
The game will still be available to fans at the stadium, with both teams pushing to secure vital points in their respective campaigns. For supporters unable to attend in person, alternative viewing options may be explored, such as live radio broadcasts or streaming through different platforms, depending on regional availability.
This move highlights the increasing complexity of TV rights deals in modern football, where scheduling conflicts and legal restrictions often prevent the most anticipated matches from being widely accessible on television.
