I think you may have mis-heard, premier league sell the overseas rights not Sky.
The Premier League is on course to sell overseas TV rights for 2016 to 2019 for more than £3billion, or more than £1billion a year, Sportsmail can reveal.
England's top division is the most popular sports league in the world in terms of territories covered and income gained from foreign sales.
Under the current three-year deals, for 2013-16, the League makes £2.23bn from overseas rights, or £743m a year.
This eye-watering sum means the Premier League earns more from foreign rights alone each year than any major European rival - Spain's La Liga, Germany's Bundesliga, Italy's Serie A or France's Ligue 1 - make from ALL their TV rights - annual, domestic and foreign combined.
On top of the £743m a year now, the Premier League makes more than £1bn a year from live domestic rights from Sky and BT Sport.
