Eurosport 1 and 2 no longer exist in the UK as they have merged with TNT Sports, which launched in 2023 to replace BT Sport.
The changes were announced earlier this year with the deadline having arrived today (Friday, February 28).
Some of the content shown on Eurosport – such as Tour de France races, Australian Open tennis, snooker and the Olympics – will be moved to TNT and Discovery+ instead, The Mirror reports.
Warner Bros Discovery (WBD), which currently runs Eurosport and also owns TNT Sports, has yet to confirm exactly how the lineup will look.
Additionally, it is not known whether all content currently shown on Eurosport will be integrated into TNT’s channels or if a new service will launch to accommodate the extra coverage.
WBD Sports Europe chief Scott Young, said: “We know audiences are looking for a slightly simpler journey on where to find the sport they love.
“This move will also continue to best deliver value for our leagues and federation partners, as we continue our 35 years plus commitment to investment and championing of sport on our screens.
“We’re building out the best sports and entertainment profile we have in this country. People can choose to make their decision as to how they want to engage with us in the short term. We are investing in cycling.
“What’s more important is the ecosystem of sports content in this market, and for sports fans now to come to one destination, and not try and pick which destination they’ve got to go to.”

If you’re not paying for premium TV like Sky TV or Virgin Media and are on Freeview or Freesat then you’ll actually get an increase in what’s on offer for sports.
WBD says it will boost some of its sports offerings which are available via the free-to-air Quest channel.
That means Freeview users will soon be able to watch every MotoGP Sprint race along with a new weekly cycling show plus highlights from the Giro d’Italia and La Vuelta a España cycle races.
