The rumour mill is in full swing as speculation mounts over who will take over for Gary Lineker on Match of the Day, much to the chagrin of Micah Richards, who labelled the rumours "disrespectful".

BBC presenter Manish Bhasin has quashed rumours that he could be the one to replace Gary Lineker as the host of Match of the Day.

Match of the Day could undergo significant changes by the 2025/26 season. The BBC has already confirmed that current host Gary Lineker will be stepping down at the end of this season.

Tonight's Children in Need is expected to be unmissable telly once again. Vernon Kay will present the show alongside stars Rochelle Humes, Ade Adepitan MBE, Mel Giedroyc, Chris Ramsay and Lenny Rush. Meanwhile, Paddy McGuinness will find out the total raised by his Radio 2 Ultra Endurance Cycle Challenge, which will see him cycle through three nations and eight counties in aid of BBC Children in Need’s 2024 Appeal.

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 has decided to depart from his presenting duties at Sports Personality Of The Year (SPOTY), as confirmed by the BBC today (Wednesday, November 13). Last year's event, which he hosted alongside famed faces such as retired Lionesses defender Alex Scott, and fellow TV icons Gabby Logan and Clare Balding, will now be the the football legend's final SPOTY hosting gig.The exit follows the news that the respected broadcaster will be bowing out from Match Of The Day (MOTD) when the current Premier League season draws to a close.
