Six ways to slash your Sky and TNT Sports bills as the Premier League 2025/26 season starts – and even bag EXTRA perks
However, you could bag some killer savings without missing out on any of the action with our handy tips below.

In the UK, broadcast rights are shared between Sky Sports and TNT Sports - with highlights appearing on the BBC.
This year, Sky has 215 live matches, while TNT has 52.
The standard price for Sky Sports is about £33, and TNT's starts at £30.99.
So what is your best option to save? Read on below for our full advice - including a clever trick that could bag you a projector to watch matches in style this summer at no extra cost.
#1 Existing TV deals
Your first - and most obvious - port of call is to check offers from any existing TV subscriptions you have.
Sky lets you add Sky Sports to a package for £20, instead of the usual £33.
#2 Switch TV provider
You might want to consider switching to a new premium TV provider to save big, depending on how much you're currently paying.
Virgin Media has recently had offers for TV and broadband, with Sky Sports included - as well as a free TV thrown in - starting from £54.99 a month.
Given that Sky Sports alone can cost £30.99 this may well work out to be a huge price cut overall, not only on TV costs but your broadband too.
Another option is trying lesser-known TV providers, such as EE TV.
If you're a BT Broadband customer already, you can add EE TV which includes TNT Sports for £23 a month (For Sky Sports as well, it's £48 in total).

#3 Sky Sports' new saver option
Another option to keep up with the Premier League is NOW (formerly known as NOW TV and owned by Sky).
The platform recently added a new saver option that's not only cheaper but ties you into a much shorter contract if you don't like 24 months.
For a year, you can pay £26 a month.
#4 Day pass
If you're only interested in the odd game here and there for your own team, then a lengthy subscription for months on end is a massive turn-off.
NOW also has day membership passes for £14.99 that last 24 hours from the moment you sign up, with full access to all 12 Sky Sports channels instantly.
#5 NOW retention deals
NOW is well known for offering retention deals too, without the hassle of haggling on the phone.
If you're out of contract, go through to the cancellation pages to see whether any offers are thrown back at you.
#6 Buy a gadget - and get TNT Sports included at no extra cost
6
This purchase hack allows you to watch matches in style over the summer while paying far less for access to TNT Sports.
EE includes access to TNT Sports with some pay-monthly gadgets it sells, such as a Samsung projector.
The Freestyle 2nd Gen projector costs £22 a month for 24 months - that's cheaper than paying £30.99 for TNT Sports every month, plus you get a cool gadget thrown in.
These offers are only open to existing EE customers though.

Sunday's briefing: Man City make fast start and Eberechi Eze nears Palace exit
Manchester City launched their Premier League season with an impressive 4-0 win at Wolves before head coach Pep Guardiola revealed he is ready to reduce the size of his squad. Tottenham, who opened with a 3-0 home win against Burnley, are expected to complete the signing of Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze and Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has called for a resolution to the Alexander Isak saga. Pep set to offload players after Wolves win Pep Guardiola claimed Manchester City's squad size is 'not healthy' after opening their Premier League campaign with a convincing 4-0 victory at Wolves. Erling Haaland struck twice and new signings Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Cherki also got on the scoresheet as City began their quest for a seventh title in nine seasons in emphatic fashion at Molineux on Saturday. Yet while goalkeeper James Trafford also made a confident debut and Rayan Ait-Nouri shone against the club he left in the summer, Guardiola's main concern is now offloading players. Guardiola said: '(It's) too much – too many people. In the next two weeks, people will talk with players and agents to find a solution.' Tottenham close on Eze signing Eberechi Eze is understood to be closing in on a move to Tottenham. The PA news agency understands the England international has reached an agreement with current club Crystal Palace that he will not play for them at Chelsea on Sunday. Meanwhile, Thomas Frank toasted the perfect start to life at Tottenham in the Premier League after a 3-0 win over Burnley. 'Perfect start or dream start,' Frank said. 'We all know we need to follow up on it. Today I will just enjoy it and I hope the players, the club and the fans enjoy it because that is important. Howe wants 'clarity' over Isak future Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has called for a resolution to Alexander Isak's future. The Magpies felt the absence of their wantaway striker at Aston Villa as they were held to a 0-0 draw against 10 men. Isak was left out by Howe as the Sweden international tries to force a move away from St James' Park, with Liverpool seeing a bid rejected earlier in the summer. Howe said: 'We would like a resolution. When I say we, I'm talking about myself and I'm sure the ownership, everyone really, the players that we have, because I think we need that clarity this season.' Amorim more confident ahead of new season Ruben Amorim feels 'more confident' about Manchester United's qualities heading into Sunday's Premier League opener against Arsenal. A sense of optimism has returned to Old Trafford, just three months on from their worst top-flight campaign in 51 years being compounded by a damaging defeat in the Europa League final. 'It is hard to know (what we will deliver) because we cannot change everything in four weeks, but we are better,' Amorim said. 'We have new players that we need to understand in the real game what they are capable to do in the moment. But I am really more confident. That is clear. I am more confident in this moment.' What's on today? Manchester United and Arsenal launch their Premier League campaigns at Old Trafford in the 4.30pm kick off and Chelsea take on London rivals Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge (2pm) in their opening match. Brentford's new head coach Keith Andrews takes charge of his first match at Nottingham Forest (2pm). There are also two Championship fixtures. Relegated pair Ipswich and Southampton face off at Portman Road (12pm) and Hull play Oxford at home (3pm).

Arsenal transfer news: Eberechi Eze saga takes fresh twist as Gunners agree deal
Arsenal have been heavily linked with Eberechi Eze throughout the summer transfer window but it's Tottenham who are the favourites for his signature, while Oleksandr Zincheko could be on his way out It all starts here. Arsenal will kick off their 2025-26 Premier League campaign on Sunday, travelling to face Manchester United at Old Trafford. But the start of the new season doesn't mean the end of the Gunners' transfer business. In fact, things are set to get much busier after a relatively quiet few weeks after the signing of Viktor Gyokeres. The Swedish striker's arrival took Arsenal's summer spending to £195million, as Mikel Arteta bids to build a squad capable of finally winning the Premier League title. It's not all about incomings, though. Sales will be needed to offset the Gunners' spending, with a number of exits are in the pipeline. Here's a round-up of the latest transfer news from the Emirates. Eze to miss Crystal Palace opener Eberechi Eze is expected to be left out of Crystal Palace's opening game of the season as he edges closer to a move to north London - but not with Arsenal. Tottenham have been installed as the favourites to sign the England international after Spurs star James Maddison suffered a serious knee injury in pre-season. Eze, 27, is open to joining Tottenham as he wants to play Champions League football, according to the Sun. Sources add that the Palace midfielder is unlikely to face Chelsea on Sunday at Stamford Bridge. Should Arsenal hijack Tottenham's move for Eberechi Eze? Have your say in the comments section. Fenerbahce agree deal for Zinchenko Oleksandr Zinchenko reportedly has the chance to sign for Fenerbahce after Arsenal agreed a deal for his departure. Zinchenko, 28, is open to leaving Arsenal after entering the final year of his contract. Turkish outlet Sporx claim that Fenerbahce have been in talks with the Gunners for a week, adding that their sporting director, Devin Ozek, has met with Arsenal's Andrea Berta to discuss the Ukrainian defender. The two clubs are said to have agreed a €3m (£2.6m) loan fee with a €10m (£8.6m) option to buy at the end of the season, with all eyes now on Zinchenko's decision. De Jong plan drawn up Arsenal are planning to sign Frenkie de Jong as a free agent next summer, it's claimed. De Jong's current terms with Barcelona expire in June 2026 and despite indicating that he wants to stay, the 28-year-old midfielder is yet to sign a new contract amid their well-documented financial woes. Fichajes report that Barca need to beware, as Arsenal are plotting a move. Arteta sees De Jong as the perfect man to compliment his current midfield options and believes that his experience would be greatly beneficial.

Manchester City squad too big and ‘not healthy', warns Pep Guardiola
Pep Guardiola said he was delighted with his new signings' immediate impact in Manchester City's 4-0 rout of Wolves but insisted his squad is too big and at risk of being unhealthy. The summer arrivals Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Cherki both scored in the victory at Molineux, where goalkeeper Ederson and midfielder Savinho were absent amid doubts over their long-term futures. The City manager said the club's hierarchy must 'find a solution' before the transfer window closes next month. The injured City pair Rodri and Phil Foden were in the stands, while Guardiola also cited Mateo Kovacic and Josko Gvardiol, who are both nearing returns to match fitness. Ederson has been linked with a move to Galatasaray while Savinho is of interest to Tottenham. Rico Lewis, who is wanted by Nottingham Forest, started at full-back in a sign he could stay at City. Asked if he was happy with his squad after the victory at Wolves, Guardiola replied: 'Too many people. It's not about Eddy [Ederson], today [there] was [no] Rodri, Phil, Kovacic, Savinho and Josko. On the bench we had Nathan [Aké] and Gündo [Ilkay Gündogan]. I like a deep squad to compete in all competitions but I don't want to leave players at home. It's not healthy. You cannot create a good vibe or atmosphere to compete. 'The club has known [about] it since last season but the situation is what it is. In the next two weeks, people will talk with players and agents to find a solution. We have to reduce the squad because it will be difficult to sustain the vibe of the team.' Wolves paid tribute to Diogo Jota in their first competitive game since the death of their former player and his brother, André Silva. 'Jota and his brother are in our minds and were in our hearts before, during and after the game,' said the Wolves head coach, their Portuguese compatriot Vítor Pereira. 'They are still with us and we tried to do our best to honour them as players, people, because of their families. We will keep him in our hearts for the future and he will be with us for ever.' Jota's parents and his wife, Rute Cardoso, were in attendance, along with his former teammate Rúben Neves and Portugal's manager, Roberto Martinez.
