Match of the Day star Gary Lineker has become the latest BBC star to speak out amid the allegations which broke on Friday.
It was reported that a male BBC presenter has been taken off-air and was reportedly being investigated for providing money in exchange for explicit photos from a teenager.
The well-known presenter, who has not been named, was accused of giving more than £35,000 to an anonymous teen for the images.
While the teenager at the centre of the allegations is now 20 years old, the situation is said to have begun when they were 17, with their mother saying that money received was used to fund a drug addiction.
BBC Sports presenter Lineker, 62, has now denied the allegations have anything to do with him.
He wrote: ‘Hate to disappoint the haters but it’s not me.’
