The Premier League season ends in May 2025.
The news comes after Lineker entered negotiations with the BBC over a new contract in October.
Lineker told Esquire magazine in August, in an interview published this month, that he accepts he will “have to slow down at some point”.
The broadcaster has hosted the BBC’s flagship football show Match of the Day since 1999.
The 63-year-old is one of the corporation’s best-known presenters and its highest-paid star, of those whose salaries are declared, earning more than £1.3m a year.
Lineker has also presented coverage of major tournaments like World Cups and European Championships for the BBC, as well as BBC Sports Personality of the Year ceremonies.
He has worked for other sports networks during his time at the BBC, including US network NBC and BT Sport (now TNT Sport), and branched out into podcasts.
However, the former footballer has also been involved in controversy at the corporation because of his social media activity.
He was briefly suspended by BBC bosses last year after an outcry over a post about the UK’s asylum policy.
Before becoming a TV presenter, Lineker had a hugely successful career as a striker for England as well as Leicester, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur and Barcelona.
