Gary Lineker Promises to Host MOTD in Underwear If Leicester Win Premier League

Match of the Day host Gary Lineker has become quite worked up about Leicester City's rise to prominence this season.

The Foxes sit top of the Premier League table following Monday night's 2-1 win over Chelsea, and Lineker, who represented Leicester City over 200 times between 1978 and 1985, made one heck of a promise should their form keep up:

We're not entirely sure how his employers feel about the vow, but he certainly got the Internet talking.

@GaryLineker @premierleague i dont think we want to see either Gary.

Even his wife, Danielle Bux, got in on the fun, referencing an uncomfortable moment from Lineker's past.

Only time will tell how far up the table Claudio Ranieri's side finish, but should they pull off the improbable, there's likely to be an outlier (one way or another) in the BBC's ratings on the first day of next season.
