Match of the Day: BBC chairman says show should include fewer highlights

Match of the Day should show fewer Premier League highlights and more analysis, says BBC chairman Samir Shah.

The BBC has a deal to show highlights of top-flight matches until the end of the 2028-29 season, with Match of the Day broadcast on Saturday evenings and MOTD2 on Sunday evenings.

that many fans had watched Premier League goals and action before Match of the Day is broadcast.

Shah said the show “should not be built around highlights”.

He added: “It should be built around analysis and examination of the match to give viewers a deeper insight.”

Although the BBC is politically independent, its chairperson is appointed by the government.

In his role as chair of the BBC’s board Shah is charge of upholding and protecting the BBC’s independence and ensuring the BBC fulfils its mission to inform, educate and entertain.

Match of the Day celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2024.

It is hosted by former England striker Gary Lineker, who will step down at the end of this season.
