There has been no shortage of contenders over the years to succeed the BBC's football commentator John Motson. But not many lists have included Nancy Dell'Olio. Until now, the Daily Star reporting that Sven-Göran Eriksson's former partner would be a "great alternative to the usual male pundits" with "major broadcasters in her native Italy, plus the BBC, ITV and Sky expected to size her up as the next Motty". "I want to be a commentator, but of course not just about technique, other things too," says the former Strictly Come Dancing contestant. "I do know football probably more than average, but I would do it from a different point of view. I would like to do something funny. There's much more to say than just the football itself." Yes. There's all those statistics for a start.
