Starting with BBC, the main presenter will be none other than Gary Lineker, who has been a familiar face on the channel since the 1998 World Cup. Despite his impressive career as a player, Lineker failed to score a goal in a European Championship.

Making history as the first female pundit for the BBC at a World Cup, Alex Scott will also be a part of the team. Another notable addition is Wayne Rooney, who will be taking a break from his managerial duties to join the BBC as a pundit. Rachel Corsie, the Scottish women's captain, will also be providing her insights alongside former West Ham manager David Moyes. And we can't forget about the other big names such as Gabby Logan, Mark Chapman, Frank Lampard, and Micah Richards, who will all be contributing to the coverage.
Over on ITV, Laura Woods will be the main presenter, leading the channel's coverage. She previously presented last year's Women's World Cup and is back in action after recovering from a freak eye injury. Arsenal's legend Ian Wright will be sharing his views as a pundit, along with Gary Neville, who will be taking a break from his role on Sky Sports. Roy Keane, the former Manchester United midfielder and Ireland international, will also be providing his insights. A surprise addition to the team is Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl, who will be making his punditry debut. And making her mark as the first American rules analyst for a UK tournament, Christina Unkel will also be joining the team. Alongside them, we'll see Mark Pougatch, Karen Carney, Eni Aluko, Graeme Souness, and Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou offering their expertise.
