Gary Lineker has confirmed he will leave the BBC after presenting his final episode of Match of the Day on Sunday.

Gary Lineker, a former England soccer captain who became the face of the sport on British TV, will leave the BBC after apologising for sharing a social media post about Zionism that drew complaints over antisemitism.

Lineker, 64, “apologised unreservedly” last week after being heavily criticised for sharing a social media post that included a rat emoji.
