Warner Bros Discovery (WBD), which currently runs Eurosport and also owns TNT Sports, has yet to confirm exactly how the lineup will look and whether all content currently shown on Eurosport will be integrated into TNT's channels or if a new service will launch to accommodate the extra coverage.
"What’s more important is the ecosystem of sports content in this market, and for sports fans now to come to one destination, and not try and pick which destination they’ve got to go to.".
Although this news clearly won't please some Sky and Virgin users - who will lose two popular channels tomorrow - there is better news for those tuning into TV via Freeview.
"We know audiences are looking for a slightly simpler journey on where to find the sport they love," said WBD Sports Europe chief Scott Young.
"This move will also continue to best deliver value for our leagues and federation partners, as we continue our 35 years plus commitment to investment and championing of sport on our screens.
