New show for Lineker

The Chronicle

|

August 09, 2025

FORMER Match Of The Day host Gary Lineker is to present a new ITV game show after his exit from the BBC.

The former footballer, 64, who left the BBC One sports show in May, said he was excited and “can’t wait” to host The Box.

In the show, 10 yellow boxes house a celebrity contestant who will be transported to unknown locations, before being released to face whatever game awaits on the other side of the door.

Each week two players will face The Duel, a finale in which the loser leaves the competition for good.

Lineker, who had presented Match Of The Day since 1999, said an emotional goodbye in an early departure from the broadcaster on May 26.
