<\/p>\nJermaine Jenas insists he will not pretend to be an expert when he becomes the new Formula E host next year.<\/p>\n
The all-electric race series announced on Thursday that it will have every race shown on TNT Sports from next season, in a move that sport chiefs hope will see it reach new audiences.<\/p>\n
The former England and Tottenham footballer has been chosen to lead the coverage of the new FE season alongside Radzi Chinyanganya and Nicki Shields. <\/p>\n

Motorsport legends such as David Coulthard and Dario Franchitti will be among the talent offering expert opinion on the action.<\/p>\n
"I am not going to sit here and try and convince people that I am any kind of expert, but that is why we have a great team around us," Jenas told Daily Star Sport.<\/i> <\/b><\/p>\n

"You'll find with a lot of ex-athletes, their interest around sport is quite vast. If you were to ask me what sports I was into, I have always been into golf, Formula One, tennis. A lot of us watch a lot of sports, so Formula E was something that, for an F1 fan, was creeping up and was one of the things that you liked to have a look at. <\/p>\n
"Coming from a footballing background, knowing people will say 'what is he doing presenting Formula E' but that is part of the challenge for me and I look forward to it.<\/p>\n
"Two days ago I was talking to George Clooney and Tom Hanks and people might go 'what is Jermaine doing speaking to them?' but I do it and I enjoy it, I love it."<\/p>\n
The move to Formula E marks the latest non-football-based TV project for Jenas, who has been a regular on BBC's The One Show since 2020.<\/p>\n

If you Google his name, he comes up as primarily a 'television presenter' now, rather than a former football player.<\/p>\n
"It's what my kids think about me now," Jenas quips. "My kids barely know that I played football. One of my goals will pop up on telly and they are like 'is that you?!'<\/p>\n
"It's a weird thing. My whole dream as a kid was to be a professional footballer so it's nice to have that part of my life and that library of what I achieved then. It is also nice to bookmark it and say 'this is the next stage of my life'.<\/p>\n
"For everyone going into retirement, it is important to do. Enjoy the past, but don't dwell on it and focus on the new thing that is ahead of you."<\/p>\n
