Kelly Cates, Mark Chapman and Gabby Logan will be the new Match of the Day presenters from next season, the BBC has announced. It is the first time the role will be shared between three people.
They will split presenting duties for Match of the Day 2 on Sundays and MOTD: Champions League on Wednesdays, as well as Saturday's flagship show.
Gary Lineker has hosted Match of the Day since 1999 and will do so for the rest of the season.
The former England striker will continue to lead the BBC's TV coverage of the FA Cup next season and present the men's World Cup in 2026.
Cates, Chapman and Logan will be the sixth set of main presenters for Match of the Day, which is the longest-running football show in the world having launched on 22 August 1964.
Last season, 33 million viewers tuned in across all Match of the Day Premier League and FA Cup programmes.
Former England players Alan Shearer and Micah Richards will continue as regular MOTD pundits.
