    Sky have lost the live TV rights to show La Liga matches in the UK and Ireland after Eleven Sports secured an exclusive three-year deal.

    It brings to an end Sky's 20-year association with the Spanish league's top flight.

    Founded in 2015, Eleven Sports is owned by Italian Andrea Radrizzani, who became Leeds United chairman in 2017.

    The partnership will begin from the start of the 2018-19 season and run until the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

    Can't stand La Liga anyways, it may have some of the best teams, but it's the worst of the 'major' European leagues to watch.

    They’ve really scaled back their coverage of the league over the last few years. Not surprising really.

    I binned off Sky last Christmas, waste of money. I’m getting a monthly NowTV pass for the playoffs, that’ll do me this year.
