PRESENTER Des Kelly has left BT Sport, according to reports.
It comes as the channel prepares to rebrand to become TNT Sports on July 18.
Kelly, 58, is the second high-profile personality to leave BT’s football coverage in recent weeks following the departure of host Jake Humphrey.
Kelly, who was at BT for 10 years, was last seen presenting pitchside at the Champions League final when, according to The Mail, he caused controversy by asking for the autograph of Manchester City man Ilkay Gundogan live on air.
His exit is said to have “shocked” colleagues who considered him an “untouchable” part of the team.
