Jacksonville Jaguars will play two of their regular-season NFL home games at Wembley Stadium during the 2020 season.

The Jaguars have committed to play an additional home game in the UK to the existing international match they have played in London in recent seasons.

Franchise owner Shahid Khan says the decision is designed to help the Jaguars continue to grow their fanbase in London and the UK.

"We're privileged to be the first team in NFL history to play two home games in London during a single season and plan to make the most of it on game days and every day of the year," he said.

"We're really looking forward to deepening our relationship with London and the UK as a whole, and would also like to thank our fans in the UK who have been phenomenal ever since our first visit, seven years ago."

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan embraced the idea as an indication of the city's international appeal.
