NATALIE SAWYER has left Sky Sports News to pursue other ventures.
The 38-year-old has been one of the longest-serving presenters on show after joining the company 18 years ago.
Sawyer, who is a columnist for SunSport, completed her final shift yesterday, with no comment about her departure on the show.
She was promoted to become the face of Transfer Deadline Day alongside co-presenter Jim White.
Colleagues are thought to be upset by her surprise departure and were asked not to mention her exit.
A spokesman told SunSport: “Natalie will not make an official comment at this time but I can confirm that she worked her final shift yesterday at Sky Sports (News) and is very much looking forward to a new challenge.”
