Jenas was given his marching orders by the broadcasting giants after allegations emerged surrounding “issues relating to workplace behaviour” by the former England midfielder.

Complaints had been made about several texts sent by the pundit and as a result, he has lost his spot on Match of the Day and as host of The One Show.

The 41-year-old was live on talkSPORT when the news broke and gave an interview to the radio show.

He said: “I am not happy about it.

“I’ll have to let lawyers deal with it.

“There are two sides to every story.”

TalkSPORT added that the allegations made against Jenas related to unsolicited messages sent to a female member of staff on The One Show.

Jenas had been tipped to replace Gary Lineker as Match of the Day host when the ex-striker decides to call time on the gig but now looks set to miss out on a huge payday.

Linker himself said in an interview that the ex-Tottenham and Newcastle man was the natural heir to the main seat on Saturday nights.
