Manchester United offers four new platforms for fans

English Premier League giant Manchester United now offers fans four new platforms to watch their in-house TV channel on.

Last season MUTV was only available to view on MUTV.com, iOS and Android devices.

Manchester United has increased its offerings to now include Xbox, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and Roku.

In a statement released by the club, the prime reason behind the move was to keep up with the growing trend of younger audiences.

Existing subscribers can access the new platforms for free with Manchester United’s chief executive of media, Phil Lynch, stating: “The continued expansion of MUTV and the launch on these platforms expands our reach, opens up new audiences, and provides our fans easy access to our award-winning on-demand and linear programming, without having to leave their set-top-box environment.”

It is expected that MUTV will be introducing several new channels including matchday programming and highlights, a library of classic matches, MUFC Original films and celebrity features.
