Laura Woods ‘wanted as face of major Premier League coverage next season by new channel’

LAURA WOODS is reportedly set to host BT Sport’s Premier League coverage next season.

BT Sport will be rebranded to TNT Sports ahead of the next campaign.

Lynsey Hipgrave has hosted most of BT’s Prem action this season, with former host Jake Humphrey filling in from time to time.

According to the postTNT Sports would like to recognize his launch by signing Woods for his coverage.

They claim that talks between the two parties are progressing well.

And they’re confident Woods will sign on the dotted line.

Woods moderates the talkSPORT breakfast show and the boxing coverage on DAZN.

She also presented ITV coverage of the World Cup in Qatar.

Should Woods sign on to TNT Sports, she would be involved in “other live programming” in addition to hosting Prem games.

TNT Sports is set to debut in July, replacing BT Sport entirely.
