Jermaine Jenas' imminent broadcasting return 'triggers serious unrest' at talkSPORT after BBC sexting scandal that led to ex-Tottenham & England star's sacking

<p>The ex-England midfielder, who was dismissed by the BBC in August following <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jermaine-jenas-dropped-lead-tv-role-hosting-formula-e-bbc-sexting-scandal-reignited/bltfc155c3feea8af75" target="_blank">allegations of workplace misconduct</a>, is scheduled to be part of the talkSPORT commentary team for this weekend’s Aston Villa vs Tottenham FA Cup fixture. According to the<em> </em><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14358245/Jermaine-Jenas-return-pundit-talkSPORT-sexting-scandal.html" target="_blank"><em>Daily Mail,</em></a><em> </em>Jenas' return has sparked internal discontent, with some staff members unwilling to work alongside him.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>An insider familiar with the situation expressed concern over how the decision was made.</p><p>"This is a decision that appears to have been forced on the staff with no consultation," the source told <em>Daily Mail.</em> "There’s a lot of shock that there was no consultation with female employees. Would you not at least check their views?"</p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p>Jenas' dismissal from the BBC came after reports emerged that he had sent "inappropriate messages" to two female colleagues while<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jermaine-jenas-dog-ruins-social-media-return-axed-bbc-presenter/blt95ab68672d1411dc" target="_blank"> working on Match of the Day</a>. Since then, the former Tottenham and Newcastle star has largely been absent from broadcasting. At the time of his sacking, talkSPORT distanced itself from Jenas, stating there were no immediate plans for him to return to their platform. However, that stance has now changed, leading to frustration among staff.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Addressing the controversy, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/have-a-problem-ashamed-jermaine-jenas-apologises-for-sending-inappropriate-messages-after-being-sacked-by-bbc/blt0a15840ae27ae810" target="_blank">Jenas maintained that there are "two sides to every story"</a> but refrained from providing further details. "I will let my lawyers handle it," he stated when questioned about the allegations.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Earlier this season, Jenas made his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jermaine-jenas-pundit-presenter-return-tv-bbc-sacking-inappropriate-messages/bltc75393fe16205bc6" target="_blank">comeback on an overseas network</a>, covering Arsenal’s clash with Liverpool in the Premier League. As the debate over his return to talkSPORT intensifies, it remains to be seen whether the station will reconsider the decision or stand by its move despite internal discontent.</p>
