Scott addressed the structural changes impacting traditional television viewership numbers over the past decade.
"I always knew this would be my last season on the show, which the BBC were aware of too.
My intention was to move quietly into the next chapter, but sometimes things change.
When this show began all those years ago, social media wasn't a driving force, podcasts didn't exist, and there was no instant access to information in the way there is today.
Now by the time we go on air the reality is you've already seen it, debated it and lived it across so many platforms.
That shift has changed the whole industry. TV audiences have been declining for years, while digital and on-demand viewing continues to grow.
To have been part of it has been incredibly special, and I'm so grateful and proud of the eight years I've been involved, including the five years I've had the honour of presenting it.
It has been such an important part of my life, working with some of the very best people in the business, both on screen and behind the scenes.
I've loved so much of it, the conversations, the laughter, and sharing so many big moments with you, the audience.
Thank you for being part of it," shared Scott.
BBC Sport Director Alex Kay-Jelski confirmed that Scott will remain a central figure for the broadcaster during upcoming major international sports events.
The network plans to utilize her expertise across both men's and women's football properties.
"Alex Scott is one of our finest presenters, is hugely popular across the men and women's game and is a big part of our present and future.
She will remain at the heart of our sports output across both the Men's World Cup this year and the Women's World Cup in 2027, as well as continuing her lead role on the Women's Super League and BBC Sport Personality of the Year.
We are also working on a very exciting new project with her – more to come on that soon," stated Kay-Jelski.
