Report: Gary Lineker to front BT Sport Champions League coverage

Gary Lineker is expected to be named as the lead presenter for BT Sport's coverage of the Champions League.

Gary Lineker has reportedly been given the green-light to front BT Sport's coverage of the Champions League.

The former England striker, who presents Match of the Day on the BBC, is currently prohibited from working for other UK broadcasters.

However, according to The Telegraph, Lineker has taken a pay cut in a new non-exclusive contract with the BBC that will allow him to join BT.

Earlier today, BT announced that Jake Humphrey had signed a new four-year contract and would be part of the Champions League presenting team.

BT have called a press conference for next Tuesday at which they are expected to unveil their full lineup for next season as well as revealing how much European football will cost viewers.
