Match of the Day, an emblem of British sports television, could be in for some unexpected changes following the departure of presenter Gary Lineker. The BBC confirmed last week that the former Tottenham forward would be stepping down from his role as host of the flagship football programme.
Match of the Day, a mainstay of British television, could see significant changes for the 2025/26 season. The BBC has already confirmed that host Gary Lineker will leave at the end of this season.
Roman Kemp is being tipped as a surprise contender for a role on Match of the Day following Gary Lineker's confirmed departure. Earlier this week, the BBC and Lineker, who took over from Des Lynam in 1999, announced he would step down from his position at the end of the season.
Sky Sports is gearing up for a battle to retain presenter Kelly Cates amid speculation that the BBC is eyeing her for the Match of the Day hosting role. Cates, who is among the favourites to fill Gary Lineker's shoes after his departure following the 2024/25 season, boasts an impressive career with stints at Sky, BBC, ITV, and Channel 4, where she is renowned for presenting Premier League shows like Friday Night Football.

Sky Sports presenter Kelly Cates has, reportedly, been identified by the BBC as one of their top contenders to replace Gary Lineker on Match of the Day from the start of the next season. After a 25-year tenure as MOTD presenter, it was announced that former England striker Lineker will depart the show at the end of this season, leaving the BBC in search of a replacement.
Gary Lineker said hosting Match Of The Day for more than two decades has been “an absolute joy and privilege”, but that it is “the right time” for him to exit and “someone else to take the helm” as the BBC look to make changes to the programme.
Gary Lineker's departure from Match of the Day next year has grabbed plenty of headlines and it's easy to see why.
