Gary Lineker deletes his Twitter account

Former striker and Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker leaves Twitter for "personal reasons".

Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker has apparently quit Twitter.

Lineker posted a short message on the social networking site this evening that read: "I'm leaving twitter for personal reasons. Thanks all."

The former Leicester City, Everton, Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur goalscorer made the surprise move having accrued over a million followers on the social media site.

It is almost a year to the day since the 52-year-old signed up for Twitter and the exit surprised his son George, who quoted the goodbye message and added: "You what?"

Lineker famously went his whole career without ever picking up a yellow or red card, for which he was awarded the FIFA Fair Play Award in 1990.
