Kate Abdo has signed a new four-year contract to lead the coverage of the Champions League for American broadcaster CBS Sports.
The 41-year-old's slick style of presenting and her ability to converse in several different languages has seen UEFA Champions League Today become a real hit with viewers from across the world. Alongside pundits Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards, the quartet has been able to provide a unique brand of insight combined with humour, such is the chemistry between the four.
On top of this, the former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel offers his on-pitch analysis, with the likes of Spanish journalist Guillem Balague also chipping in. Special guests, either on the punditry panel or as an interviewee have also included the legendary former Juventus striker Alessandro Del Piero and ex-Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher.
