Presenter expected to host his last Match of the Day on Sunday and will not front broadcaster’s 2026 World Cup coverage
Match of the Day host Gary Lineker is expected to announce he is leaving the BBC on Monday after apologising for amplifying online material with antisemitic connotations, the Guardian understands.
The former Leicester City and England footballer will reportedly not front the 2026 World Cup or the FA Cup in 2025-26 after “bowing out by mutual agreement” with the broadcaster.
