MILAN, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Italy’s Serie A soccer league said on Monday it had accepted an offer for rights to broadcast matches for the 2018-21 seasons presented by Spanish broker Mediapro at just above 1.05 billion euros ($1.31 billion).
The amount offered exceeds the 1.05 billion-euro minimum threshold set for the deal. The league will now notify the Italian antitrust authority of its decision before it can proceed with officially assigning the rights.
