Graeme Souness could be set to leave his punditry role at Sky Sports at the end of the 2022-23 Premier League season, according to stunning reports.

The Liverpool legend, 69, has been a prominent figure in the Sky studio since he was sacked from Newcastle in 2006.

Souness has frequently appeared for matchday punditry on Sky and shared the studio with the likes of Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Micah Richards.

The former Scotland midfielder and captain has continued to expand his punditry duties and signed on with talkSPORT ahead of the current campaign.

Souness previously inked three-year deals with Sky, which would usually sync with the broadcaster’s contracts to secure the rights to live Premier League fixtures.

However, The Athletic has now reported that Souness only agreed to a one-year deal back in the summer and will be out of contract at the end of the season.

It is believed that Sky could shake up its punditry line-up after agreeing to fresh terms for the Premier League rights in 2021.

Souness, who has also been a pundit for Rangers TV and ITV in recent years, has been known for his outspoken views and controversial remarks.

The ex-Liverpool midfielder and captain launched a scathing attack on Jack Grealish in September, which prompted a fiery response from the Manchester City star.

Souness was also met with fierce backlash in August after the 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham, with the no-nonsense pundit calling it a “man’s game.”

“Referees are letting a lot more go and it allows for a better watch,” he said at the time.

“It’s a man's game all of a sudden now.”
