Netflix is extending its soccer programming with more episodes of The Rest Is Football for the 2026/27 Premier League season. The move keeps the streamer involved in football coverage and signals continued support for the show built around Gary Lineker’s popular podcast brand.
According to the announcement, Netflix had already made the project its first daily sports show. It has also been presenting the Gary Lineker podcast in vodcast form each day, showing that the company is leaning further into sports-adjacent programming rather than limiting itself to traditional scripted and unscripted entertainment.
The renewal suggests Netflix sees ongoing value in regular football discussion tied to one of the world’s biggest domestic leagues. A daily format gives the platform a steady stream of topical content throughout the Premier League calendar, helping it stay part of the conversation around matches, storylines and major moments.
For viewers, the return of The Rest Is Football means the show will continue as a familiar destination for football talk on Netflix during the next Premier League campaign. For Netflix, it marks another step in broadening its sports presence through recurring coverage anchored by a well-known soccer media name.
