Jermaine Jenas has issued an update on his future in football punditry after being sacked by the BBC.
The BBC removed Jenas from its presenting line-up after they investigated allegations of inappropriate behaviour made against the former England midfielder.
Jenas also works for TNT Sports, but has not appeared for the broadcaster since his sacking. TNT have yet to clarify whether he will be part of their team moving forwards.
The former One Show host and Match of the Day pundit admitted to sending inappropriate messages to two female BBC colleagues in an interview with The Sun last month.

But he claimed he did 'nothing illegal', and did not send sexual videos or photos.
Since the news of his sacking, the Daily Mail published allegations that Jenas sent unsolicited messages to a BT Sport staff member, which he has denied.
Now, on his Instagram story, the 41-year-old has addressed his future as a football pundit while walking his dog.
After pausing to collect waste from his dog - who he said appeared to be 'disappointed' with him after the allegations broke - he began: "Obviously I've been missing for a while on the socials. I thought it was important for me to jump on here, and talk to you guys.
"I want to say thank you for the level of support you have shown me. It's clearly been a difficult period for me, but one that I'll definitely grow from.
"You'll learn from it, become a better person. I think those are the things in life that are most important.
"None of us are perfect. We've just got to find a way to keep moving forward, look after our babies and deal with it as best as we possibly can, and that's what we'll try to do.
"There's some exciting stuff that I've been working on, so hopefully you'll all have that to look forward to very soon.
"Hopefully, I'll be back to talking about what I love, really, which is football. I've been watching - but I'm looking forward to getting back to what I love doing most. Thank you, and see you soon."
