Kelly Cates will share presenting duties of the BBC's flagship football show Match of the Day, along with co-hosts Mark Chapman and Gabby Logan.
Gary Lineker has been in the role since 1999 but it was announced in November that he would be stepping away.
Cates has been a central figure to Sky Sports' live football coverage in recent times.
Chapman has often hosted Match of the Day 2, the state broadcaster's secondary Premier League highlights programme, and Logan has led both highlights and live coverage across a number of sports.
