Just announced new CEO, previous of Man United and Adidas.

Where does that leave Matt Williams? Or is he in a different role?

Hell of a coup to get someone with his CV.

Previously Chief Commercial Development Officer at arguably the biggest football club in the world commercially, and only available because of Ratcliffe's purge.

As an added bonus, it would be nice if he could also negotiate a deal with his other former employers adidas, although I doubt we could get the £900m 10 year deal he was part of securing.
