Geoff Shreeves quits Sky Sports after 32 years to become latest big-name departure

Geoff Shreeves has quit Sky Sports with immediate effect after 32 years, joining their list of big-name departures this summer.

It's claimed that the 58-year-old tunnel reporter rejected a pay cut and joins fellow Sky stalwart Jeff Stelling in walking away from the broadcaster, which hopes to drive down costs and increase diversity among their workforce. Legendary commentator Martin Tyler has already departed after 30 years in the job and promptly been replaced by the acclaimed Peter Drury.

Ex- Liverpool captain and manager Graeme Souness also confirmed that he'd be leaving his role as a pundit at the end of the 2022-23 Premier League season after his contract expired. The Daily Mail report that Shreeves wasn't willing to decrease his salary but is expected to be back on television soon working for another company.
