Six Nations/CVC deal worth £45m to Scottish Rugby
BT have been named sponsor at Murrayfield since 2014.
The confirmation of the long-awaited partnership deal between the Six Nations and private equity group CVC could provide a windfall of nearly £45 million to Scottish Rugby.
After negotiations lasting well over a year which were complicated by delays due to the pandemic, CVC have ploughed in £365m for a seventh-share in rugby’s most historic and popular annual tournament.
The Luxembourg-based group have already made sizeable investments into the Gallagher Premiership and the Guinness PRO14 club competitions in rugby, but this is their biggest move to date. The deal also covers each of the six nations’ Autumn International Series matches.
