Football on TV will never be the same again.
For years, the Premier League has stuck to a tried and tested style when it comes to how matches are shown; sharp cameras, and crisp commentary.
But mostly, what happened on the pitch stayed on the pitch. Fans saw goals, fouls, and touchline drama but the rest stayed behind closed doors.
Unlike American sports, where cameras roam everywhere from dugouts to locker rooms, the Premier League kept things neat. Well, that era might just be over.
Next season, English football will be flipping the script.
Broadcasters like Sky and TNT are planning to go deeper than ever before.
And this time, they are not stopping at the touchline. From 2025/26, live interviews will take place with players right after they are subbed off.
That is not a typo. These chats will happen on the sidelines. In real time while matches are still ongoing. And that is not all.
For the first time ever, cameras will be allowed inside the dressing rooms.
That means full access to pre-match moments, half-time talks, and post-game celebrations or meltdowns.
Viewers might see managers giving team talks, players regrouping, or letting loose after a big win.
This move is aimed at bringing fans closer to the emotional heart of the game.
More than just passes and goals, it is about reactions, tension, relief, and raw energy.
According to The Telegraph, this is all part of a new plan by Premier League bosses to offer broadcasters more value.
Especially, with the huge money involved in TV deals, clubs and networks alike want to give fans a product that feels alive, unpredictable, and personal.
So get ready, as the matchday experience from your sofa is about to feel a lot more real. It might divide opinions, but one thing is clear. Football on TV will never be the same again.
