London, July 29 (ANI): Even as Newcastle is set to start the season without Alan Shearer Alan Shearer OBE (born 13 August 1970 in Gosforth) is a retired professional English footballer who played as a striker for the England national team and Premiership clubs, Southampton, Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United.  in charge, the manager is expected to be present in the BBC BBC

BBC pundit Lineker said: "Shearer will be in the studio with us unless something dramatic happens. It is such a shame that a big club like that can be in a terrible mess. It is hard to know what will happen."

The Magpies remain in turmoil after Singapore-based Profitable Group on Tuesday pulled out of a deal to buy the club, The Sun reports.

Lineker added: "I have spoken to Alan a couple of times. He doesn't know what's going on Verb 1. know what's going on - be well-informed

The BBC's head of TV sport Philip Bernie said: "We expect Alan to be there as a pundit. That's the plan. We understand he is in a difficult situation which is not of his making - but he's got a contract with us and we expect him to return."

Former Spurs and Leicester star Lineker added: "If Newcastle don't get their act together soon, they could find themselves getting a bad start to the season and it could go even more pear-shaped.

"Look at Leeds and where they have ended up. But once you slip from the Premier League it is really difficult. It is much harder than people think and it will be hard for Newcastle. Their opening game at West Brom will be very interesting." (ANI)
