They do, they sell contents, (like coverage of the soccer world cup), to other providers.

License fee does not cover everything.

The BBC does not sell it's coverage rights to third parties. Rights to broadcast the World Cup are paid to FIFA.

They sell their own content to other providers, like UK Gold and Brit Box for example but they do not profit from broadcasting the World Cup.
