Arsenal sign a season-long deal with new US network ONE World Sports to show their matches in full but on a delay.

Arsenal have signed a season-long broadcast deal with ONE World Sports, who will exclusively show full matches on a delay in the USA.

ONE World Sports is a new channel in the lucrative US market, which has already secured rights to show Bayern Munich and Chelsea in North America this season.

The one-year deal will see Arsenal games shown in a three-hour package on Sunday nights across the pond, featuring exclusive interviews with boss Arsene Wenger and players as part of the coverage.

Champions League and domestic cup matches are also included, with the programmes to be shown at 9pm ET in the US.

Alexander Brown, president of ONE World Sports, declared that the network was delighted to edge competition for the rights, while hoping to build a new customer base around Arsenal's global reach.

He said: "Arsenal is a world-renowned soccer club with a huge global following. By adding this exciting soccer action to ONE World Sports, we continue to build our portfolio of soccer from some of the most accomplished clubs that the world has to offer."

The Gunners get their Premier League campaign underway on August 17 when they welcome Aston Villa to the Emirates Stadium.
