Gary Lineker, the long-time host of BBC's Match of the Day, has indicated that he may be nearing the end of his tenure as speculation mounts around his future with the show. At 63, he acknowledged that he might need to 'slow down' and has yet to renew his contract, which expires at the end of the current football season. Lineker, who earns approximately £1.35 million annually, has also launched a successful podcast venture, The Rest Is Football, alongside former footballers Alan Shearer and Micah Richards. In a recent interview, he suggested that while he enjoys hosting, he is considering focusing more on his podcasting and production company, Goalhanger. The BBC has denied any imminent announcements regarding his departure, stating he remains under contract until the season's conclusion. His future remains uncertain as he balances his commitments with the iconic show and other business interests.
