The BBC has started a search to find a new football expert, with 12 content creators competing in Last Pundit Standing for a role as a BBC Sport contributor.
The TV series will run on the BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.
Last Pundit Standing will be co-hosted by former Watford captain Troy Deeney and YouTuber James Lawrence Allcott.
Potential pundits will be whittled down through a series of tasks staged at iconic football locations as the creators are challenged by some of the biggest names in the game.
The candidates are Toby Addison, Ally Tomlinson, Cathal Traquair, Fuad Abdul Aziz, Rukiah Ally, Jess Watkins, Khwaja Raees Mahmood, Reggie Yembra, Nancy Baker, Nahyan Chowdhury, Lia Lewis and Oscar Browning.
Deeney said: “I’m absolutely buzzing to co-host Last Pundit Standing. There’s something really special about the energy that surrounds an exciting new show like this.
“We’re bringing together some amazing creators in incredible locations, with some huge special guests. I can’t wait to dive in and have some fun over the series.”
BBC Creator Lab, working on this with BBC Sport, is a talent search scheme, in collaboration with TikTok, for social and digital creators with an interest in developing a career in television.
Transmission details will be announced in due course.
