Kate Abdo Career

Abdo's broadcasting career started at the German international news network Deutsche Welle in 2005, in which she completed an internship in the foreign language department. In 2006–07, she worked as a production assistant for Goal! The Bundesliga Magazine, and at the same time was sports news presenter at Deutsche Welle until 2009, where she hosted sports coverage for their English and German-language services.

From there she moved to CNN, where she anchored the "World Sports" program daily. She also hosted the "Inside Africa" feature show. Abdo left CNN to join Sky Sport News HD in Germany, where she was head anchor and the face of the network. Abdo joined to be a public face for the launch of the network and was also heavily involved in the development of the network's coverage, formats and programming.

From Germany, Abdo moved to the UK to join Sky Sports, where she hosted the Pay Per View Boxing events, European Football, Transfer Deadline day and Sky Sports News. Sky Sports loaned Abdo to Fox Sports to host their coverage of the Women's World Cup in 2015, and Abdo later took up a permanent offer from the network to relocate to the US and host their Champions League, Europa League, World Cup, FA Cup, and Bundesliga coverage. On three occasions (2010, 2011 and 2013), she acted as presenter for the UEFA Europa League group stage draw in Monaco.

Since being at Fox, she has also now taken on the role of hosting Fox's Premier Boxing Champions, including a regular studio show "Inside PBC Boxing" and fight night coverage. After Fox lost the rights to Champions League to Turner, Abdo also signed a deal to host Champions League coverage on TNT from Turner's Atlanta studios.

Abdo is also well known for her role hosting the FIFA Ballon d'Or and Laureus World Sports Awards, both of which she hosted on numerous occasions. At the 2014 FIFA Ballon d'Or ceremony she spoke with contestants and guests in four languages. She was also a host for the 2015 FIFA Ballon d'Or.

After losing major soccer rights and the cancellation of ‘’Inside PBC’’, Abdo left Fox Sports.

In 2020, Abdo returned to the UK to work for CBS Sports as the host of the UEFA Champions League and Europa League.

Abdo still works in the US for DAZN's boxing coverage.

Kate Abdo has claimed that she was left 'feeling a little bit hurt' by Jamie Carragher's 'obnoxious' joke that she was 'not loyal' to her partner Malik Scott.  The CBS Sports presenter has also added that Scott, a boxing trainer, does not want to fight the former Liverpool defender, despite him saying he would 'show up in a physical manner' if someone had upset his partner.  The incident occurred during CBS Sports' coverage of Arsenal's Champions League clash against Porto at the Emirates Stadium in March, with Carragher's attempted humour missing the mark.
