The first interview with alternative players will be conducted from a new campaign ahead of Premier League TV coverage in the 2025/26 season.
The camera operator will also be allowed into the gaming realm to capture close-ups of the target celebration and will be given access to the locker room.
The Premier League announced in December 2023 that the UK’s new TV rights deal is worth £6.7 billion, which will allow Sky Sports to hold 215 top-tier matches per season, starting from 2025-26, while TNT Sports keeps 52 matches in exclusive coverage per season.
The locker room will also allow cameras, but under certain restrictions, including when the manager conducts team talks. However, teams like Manchester City and Arsenal may not be allowed to enter their locker rooms, as the videos have been signed with certain media companies.
