As speculation continues to rage on regarding the future of Ted Lasso and whether the series really is ending, Nate star Nick Mohammed has said that fans can expect a "cathartic" season finale - but perhaps not a definitively concluding one.

Speaking exclusively with RadioTimes.com about previous comments made by the show's writers, where they have said that this season will close out a planned story arc, Mohammed said: "They've been really honest from the start, saying that they had mapped out these three-season arcs for everyone.

"But I think that's quite common to be honest, to have at least three seasons' worth of ideas, because often when you pitch a show you'll be expected to show how it can have longevity.

"There's a certain element of catharsis the way this season ends - I think that's fair to say, without giving anything away - for all the characters and not in necessarily ways that you might expect."

On the show's future beyond season 3, Mohammed said: "I don't write on the show so I can't say. I genuinely don't know, I'm not being coy. But I would love for it to continue.

This season has already dropped hints about the show's future, while episode 5 saw Higgins suggest to Rebecca that, if Richmond's fates don't improve, a change of management could be in order. Could this be the end for Ted at the club?

This season has also revealed that Richmond player Colin is gay, with actor Billy Harris telling RadioTimes.com that he was "honoured" when he found out about the storyline.

He said: "I think even from season 1, seeing where the show was going and how it touched on toxic masculinity and mental health, it wasn't just a comedy about football.

"And it was really something I thought early on that the show could and should tackle. So when they asked me of course I was so honoured and I was really just looking forward to season 3."
