Former Manchester City and England defender Micah Richards has revealed he plans to step away from television punditry within the next eight years, despite enjoying huge success since retiring from football.
The 38-year-old has established himself as one of football’s most recognisable broadcasters following the end of his playing career in 2019.
Richards is a regular pundit across the BBC, Sky Sports and CBS Sports, earning praise for his engaging personality and on-screen chemistry with fellow analysts.
He also co-hosts The Rest Is Football podcast alongside Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer.
The show has continued to grow in popularity, with Netflix reportedly paying £14 million to stream it during this summer’s FIFA World Cup in North America.
