Everton Appoints New CEO To Lead Club Into New Era
Everton has appointed Angus Kinnear as their new chief executive, bringing over 20 years of leadership experience in football to the role.
Kinnear previously served as CEO of Leeds United since 2017 and has held senior positions at Arsenal and West Ham United before his time at Elland Road.
”We are delighted to welcome Angus to the club,” Everton Executive Chairman Marc Watts said in a statement on Monday. “His track record of leadership and strategic delivery across multiple Premier League clubs speaks for itself.
”Angus joins us at a pivotal time, and we know his energy, expertise, and experience make him the perfect man to lead Everton as we move into an exciting new era.”
Everton are set to leave Goodison Park, their home since 1892, to move into a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock with a capacity of 52,888 spectators.
Goodison Park will host an emotional final Premier League match on Sunday against Southampton, who have already been relegated.
Everton’s interim CEO Colin Chong will revert to the role of chief real estate & regeneration officer and will oversee the development of Everton’s new stadium, the regeneration of the surrounding area, and the future of Goodison Park.
The Texas-based Friedkin Group announced in September that they had reached an agreement to buy Everton.
The 98.8% takeover was completed in December, following the sale of Farhad Moshiri’s Blue Heaven Holdings’ majority stake.
