It has been reported that seven Sky Sports News reporters are set to leave the company.
On Monday, long-serving presenter Rob Wotton announced his departure after 27 years.
He was given a farewell during the Football Show, with regular pundits Sue Smith and Stephen Warnock leading the tributes for the outgoing star.
Now, it has been claimed that six more are set to follow Wotton out of the doors.

As reported by The Sun, six more members of the Sky Sports News team are set to depart.
The report stated: "Sky Sports News have told staff that six of Wotton’s colleagues will also be leaving in an internal memo sent yesterday.
"Fellow presenters Teddy Draper and Jasper Taylor are also going this summer, along with senior reporters Jeremy Langdon and Melissa Reddy and Fadumo Olow."
"Sky told staff they were embarking on a redundancy programme at the start of the month and the departures follow a period of consultation."
In addition to the above mentioned names, a news editor is also leaving the company.
SPORTbible has reached out to Sky for comment.
Speaking about his exit, Wotton said: "It's been an absolute pleasure. I came here in my 20s and I thought I was only coming for a couple of weeks.
"And look, they haven't been able to get rid of me. I keep turning up, maybe one day they'll pay me!"
Wotton's fellow presenters, Draper and Taylor, have spent 18 and 11 years at Sky, respectively.
Meanwhile, Langdon has been at the broadcaster for over two decades.
Reddy, who has been the senior football reporter, joined Sky three years ago and is often involved in big news related to clubs like Manchester United and Liverpool.
Sky Sports News Director Mark Alford said: "We would like to thank each of our colleagues for their huge contribution to Sky Sports News over the years. We wish them all the best for their future endeavours."
