Several presenters revealed they would not be replacing Lineker on the show including Mark Chapman.

So in an attempt to be witty Baddiel put John Terry’s name forward in a jibe at the former Blues captain infamously standing in to lift the Champions League trophy in his kit in 2012 despite not playing in the final.

Baddiel, 58, quipped: “I wonder if, somewhere, John Terry is practicing using an autocue.”

Terry, 42, reacted angrily to the joke and used an emoji to label Baddiel a clown.

Several names have been linked with replacing Lineker including former MOTD2 presenter Colin Murray.

But after a boycott led by Ian Wright and Alan Shearer the BBC have decided to air Match of the Day without a presenter, pundits and even commentators.

Some fans called for BBC Sport’s Emma Louise Jones to replace Lineker.
