The broadcast of games around the world has generated billions of pounds for the Premier League and its clubs

The Premier League will launch its own streaming service in Singapore next season - and is looking to see how it could be "replicated all around the world".

The Netflix-style app, which will be named Premier League Plus, will allow users to watch all 380 matches of the season, as well as other content.

It is a departure from the way games have traditionally been broadcast with rights packages sold to broadcasters, although it will not affect current deals such as those in place with Sky Sports and TNT Sports in the UK.

A number of other sporting organisations have already set up similar streaming platforms including the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball in North America, as well as Formula 1.
