Gary Lineker says it is ‘right time’ to leave Match of the Day
Presenter says it ‘makes sense for someone else to take the helm’ at show as BBC looks to make changes
Gary Lineker has said it is the “right time” for him to leave Match of the Day after presenting the BBC football programme for more than two decades.
Speaking on his podcast, The Rest is Football, the 63-year-old said his time on the show had been “an absolute joy and privilege” but it was time for “someone else to take the helm” as the BBC looks to make changes to the show.
