Arsenal Executes Major Boardroom Shake-Up with CEO Appointment, Executive Exit

News summary

Arsenal Football Club is undergoing a major leadership overhaul with the departure of Tim Lewis, the executive vice-chair who has been closely tied to owner Stan Kroenke and the Kroenke Sports and Entertainment (KSE) group since 2007. Richard Garlick, previously managing director, has been promoted to CEO, signaling a shift in the club's strategic direction. Alongside this, KSE is appointing several new non-executive directors, including Kelly Blaha, Otto Maly, Dave Steiner, and film producer Ben Winston, to bring diverse expertise and strengthen the club's governance. Lewis was known for his strong stance on financial regulation and state ownership in the Premier League, but his departure comes amid reports of internal friction and a desire for evolution within the club. Josh Kroenke will continue to play a prominent role, underscoring a drive to integrate Arsenal more closely with KSE's broader sports operations. The changes mark the club's effort to balance on-field ambitions with financial sustainability and governance modernization.
