THIS summer's British & Irish Lions tour is reportedly set to be shown on free-to-air TV with S4C understood to have agreed a deal for a highlights package.

The Welsh-language channel is believed to have bought highlights rights for all three of the Lions' Test matches against Australia, as well as their six tour games, with those highlights set to be broadcast in Welsh only, according to the Guardian.
S4C are also set to provide full live coverage of Andy Farrell's side's clash with Argentina in Dublin on Friday, June 20, which will be available in both English and Welsh.
While it will only be shown in Welsh, the highlights package will be available to watch across the UK via S4C's iPlayer service and YouTube channel.
