ITV will screen highlights from the Championship, League One, League Two, the EFL Cup and other competitions beginning next season.

ITV has secured the broadcast rights to EFL highlights in a two-year deal starting from next season, it has been announced.

The broadcaster will take over from Quest with highlights from all games in the Championship, League One and League Two, as well as the promotion playoffs, every round of the EFL Cup and the final of the EFL Trophy.

A main roundup programme will air every Saturday at 9pm on ITV4 and will be repeated on ITV later that night after BBC One's Match of the Day ends. The show will also air on ITV on Sunday mornings and be available on the ITV Hub.

"With 1891 matches played across the season, it's crucial for the EFL that the very best of our match action is widely accessible and we are delighted that ITV will show highlights of our games for the next two years," said EFL chief executive Trevor Birch.

"As an experienced major broadcaster with a comprehensive sports portfolio, ITV's commitment to high quality coverage will showcase the breadth and depth of our competitions to football supporters all over the country."

ITV's director of sport Niall Sloane added: "This deal brings viewers free to air coverage of one of the most unpredictable divisions we have in the Sky Bet Championship, the best of the action from Sky Bet League One and League Two alongside the exciting midweek competitions in the Carabao Cup and the Papa John's Trophy.

"By offering highlights across our platforms, via our channels and on demand on ITV Hub, we hope football fans will enjoy our EFL shows from next season."

Sky Sports remains the exclusive home of live EFL coverage until at least 2024.
