And this seems to confirm it.

In what would be the biggest shock in sports broadcasting since it blew Sky out of the water to land the Champions League, BT was poised to freeze the latter out of showing Real Madrid and Barcelona for the next three years.
Quote:
BT already has Germany’s Bundesliga, Italy’s Serie A, France’s Ligue 1 and Portugal’s Primeira Liga and taking their Spanish equivalent in the coming weeks would be a major coup, calling into question Sky’s decision last year to launch a seventh dedicated sports channel in Sky Sports 5 to showcase its European football portfolio.
Quote:
The La Liga rights are the second major property Sky has failed to land since spending an astonishing £4.2 billion to keep hold of the lion’s share of Premier League football.
