MUMBAI: TWI has been re-appointed to distribute Manchester United Television (MUTV). This is the daily football club channel and the deal is for the next three seasons.
For the last contract, TWI had secured deals in India, the Middle and Far East, Europe and Africa. This was in addition to established deals in New York and Scandinavia.
Under the new contract, both TWI and MUTV expect to venture into many more countries as the demand for club channel content grows. Now its new enhanced TV package, which can been seen everyday, will include live coverage of United's USA tour matches against Bayern Munich, Celtic and AC Milan.
There will be delayed full coverage of all 38 Premier League matches as well as delayed full coverage of all Uefa Champions' League matches. Another feature will be expert analysis of matches by the players themselves from MUTV's studio inside the Trafford Training Centre.
