Revealed: How much Gary Lineker earns from Rest Is Football podcast, having claimed England's group performance was 'sh*t'

European Championship

England

Switzerland

Lineker, along with former players and pundits Micah Richards and Alan Shearer, have been part of the Rest is Football Podcast, analysing the matches at Euro 2024. After England's second group stage game against Denmark, which ended in a 1-1 draw, the former Spurs and Barcelona star <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/gary-lineker-scathing-assessment-england-euro-2024-questions-kalvin-phillips-claim-gareth-southgate/blt342ade66c2ca6708#csc94cfc218c011b53" target="_blank">delivered a scathing assessment of the Three Lions players,</a> labelling their performance 'sh*t'.

WHAT HAPPENED?

According to a report published by <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/uk/media/article/gary-lineker-podcast-the-rest-is-football-euros-earnings-tprk6tcbt" target="_blank">The Times</a>, the ex-England forward has pocketed £125,000 since the start of the tournament. From advertisements, he has received payments worth £45 per 1,000 views every time he mentions the sponsors and £15 if they are associated with them. Views and listens have gone up significantly and as per his son Harry, who produces the podcast, there has been a steep rise in the number of downloads.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

While the critical analysis has earned Lineker a sizable amount of money, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tough-england-harry-kane-gary-lineker-alan-shearer-euro-2024-criticism-three-lions-cope-pressure/bltf85cd6f04206770e#cs15a03163b73eb52c" target="_blank">it has not gone down well with English players, especially captain Harry Kane</a>, who recently hit back at his former team-mate. The Bayern Munich star reminded Lineker what it is like to play for the national team and urged the former Spurs star, as well as Richards and Shearer, to maintain a positive outlook on Southgate's squad.
