BT Sport has today announced that Motorway, the UK’s fastest growing used car marketplace will co-sponsor BT’s broadcast coverage of the Premier League, the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA Europa Conference League.
The sponsorship agreement brokered by Motorway’s media agency, MG OMD, and Sky Media, will span 127 live games across BT Sport’s coverage of the 2022 / 2023 season with the first game on the 6th August.
