George Lineker has suggested dad Gary could quit Match of the Day for good when his contract runs out in two years' time.
The 62-year-old presenter has been embroiled in controversy this past week after being stepped down from his duties on the long-running BBC football highlights show after criticism of his comments comparing the Tories' new policy on migrants to that of 'Nazi Germany'.
Lineker will not present Match of the Day on Saturday evening after refusing to back down over his comments, forcing the BBC to axe him from the show until they could come to an agreement. But the BBC's move has backfired with colleagues including fellow pundits also pulling out of the broadcast and other shows.
