GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Wright says that the job is too intense, given he starts his journey to the studio at 8.30am and doesn't return home until 3.30am the following day. His decision to step down has sparked rumours he could sign for Sky Sports' Monday Night Football, but he has dismissed that notion, too.
GettyWHAT NEXT FOR WRIGHT?
Having denied that he will make a full-time switch to Sky Sports, it is not yet known what the 60-year-old former attacker's next move will be. He might just decide to take it easy and enjoy more time with his family.
