MARTIN TYLER will return to a Premier League commentary gantry on Monday evening.
The respected TV broadcaster left Sky Sports in June after 33 years of calling the top Premier League matches each weekend but he never announced his retirement from work.
And he will have a microphone in his hand as he covers the Premier League tie between Tottenham and Fulham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Tyler, 78, will be working for Premier League Productions, which provides worldwide feed from English top-flight games.
Throughout his time as the voice of football for Sky, he commentated on the biggest matches, domestically and in the Champions League, and he also reported on World Cup finals.
But the veteran will be remembered for his iconic, unscripted words including when Argentine forward Sergio "Aguerooooooooh" Aguero scored a dramatic late winner to secure Manchester City the Premier League title in 2012.
