Gary Lineker has opened up on being sued by former Liverpool star Harry Kewell over a newspaper column.

Kewell, who played for the likes of Leeds and Galatasaray during his career as well as Liverpool, appeared to take issue with Lineker's words over two decades ago as he discussed his move from the Whites to the Reds.

The article in the Sunday Telegraph, titled: 'Kewell Move Made me Feel Ashamed of the Game,' resulted in Kewell suing for alleged defamation, with Lineker writing that the Australian 'needed his head examined' given the money his agent was making from the deal.
