Gary Lineker jokes about becoming Tom Daley's new synchronised diving partner

Gary Lineker jokes that he has become Tom Daley's synchronised diving partner after bumping into the Olympian poolside at the London Aquatics Centre.

Former England footballer Gary Lineker has joked about becoming Tom Daley's new synchronised diving partner after meeting the Olympian at the London Aquatics Centre.

Daley is a medal hope for Great Britain at next summer's Olympic Games in Rio after he secured bronze at London 2012.

Lineker, who is the anchor for BBC's Match of the Day, recently grabbed a picture with the 21-year-old while he was poolside at the venue.

On Instagram, the 54-year-old joked: "Great that @tomdaley1994 has found a new synchro partner. Resemblance is uncanny. #tomdaley is on the left."

Daley, who is engaged to American Dustin Lance Black, recently announced that he is launching his own diving academy in Manchester.
