British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has called on TNT Sports to broadcast next weekend's Champions League final between Arsenal and Paris St Germain for free to all UK viewers.
Starmer, an Arsenal supporter, said he was 'saddened' that for the first time in 34 years, the final won't be free to watch. He emphasized the match is important for all football fans, not just those supporting the finalists, as communities gather to watch elite competition.
TNT Sports is offering a £4.99 monthly subscription for the game, which a company spokesperson called 'exceptional value.'
Starmer's call comes days after Arsenal won the Premier League title, though his political standing has weakened following Labour's poor performance in recent local elections.
