FA Cup And England Soccer Rights
The international broadcasting rights for FA Cup and England home games from 2008 to 2012 have been put out to tender by the Football Association.
The deadline for submissions is set for September 28.
There are two packages of live games - covering the FA Cup and England internationals - and two delayed rights packages, which include highlights and various clip and edit rights.
All rights will be available across three distinct platforms - broadcast, internet and mobile.
Jonathan Hill, group commercial director at the FA, said: "We consistently see significant viewing figures for England and FA Cup matches which underline the immense popularity of our broadcast properties, both in England and abroad,
"The new packages are tailored to the modern market and provide broadcasters with flexibility and a wide range of options, and we are confident that interest in our rights internationally is high and competition for the rights will be intense."
