Jermaine Jenas maintains that Graeme Souness lied about what he said.
A BBC spokesperson said: "We can confirm Jermaine Jenas is no longer part of our presenting line up."
Speaking earlier this year, Jenas offered a hefty sum of money to charity if someone was able to find evidence of the alleged statement. "So I was captain for a number of games, even over people like Kluivert, Bellamy, and Dyer. And there was just a bit of a shift in the energy that I felt from the manager at that particular time."And yeah they already sacked Bobby which I wasn't entirely happy with, but Graeme came in and I was like, 'well, superstar midfield player, I can't wait to learn everything there is to learn from you'.
