The newest news about Newcastle United: Yasir Al-Rumayyan and Jamie Reuben both stated that David Hopkinson has been hired as the new CEO of Newcastle United. Darren Eales will no longer be Newcastle United’s CEO. David Hopkinson has been announced as the new CEO.
he said he would be stepping down as CEO in September 2024, but he would still be in charge of the club’s senior team until a new CEO was hired. The person who will replace Eales at St. James’ Park has been named as Hopkinson. He was most recently president and COO at Madison Square Garden Sports. Hopkinson has worked in US sports for a lot of his time and is now the head of global partnerships at Real Madrid.
This club stands for something very special. It has an amazing past and heritage, fans who are very passionate about it, and owners, players, and staff who are dedicated to doing the best job possible. I’ve worked with famous teams from many countries, so I know what it takes to be successful at the highest levels of world sports for a long time.
I’m very proud of what the club has done so far, and I’m excited and motivated by what lies ahead as we try to make Newcastle United one of the best teams in the world. Newcastle United breaks their silence with Yasir Al-Rumayyan. The move to name Hopkinson CEO comes after a rough summer that started with the shocking firing of sports director Paul Mitchell. The Magpies were able to get through a rough summer, but they badly needed key leaders at the top of the club.
David is a great businessman whose work in world sports and entertainment speaks for itself.
His experience and strategic skills will be very helpful as we continue to grow the club’s impact in the community and around the world, both on and off the field. David’s direction will be very important as we build on what we’ve already done since the acquisition to make the future exciting and ensure long-term success.
Without a doubt, I want to thank Darren Eales for his great work, guidance, and friendship over the last three years. “He has been in charge of some of the biggest names in sports around the world, so he brings a lot of experience and a very strong base to build on.”
Once Hopkinson is officially named CEO, a new sports director will likely be hired. As Newcastle United’s sports director, neither Dan Ashworth nor Mitchell lasted more than a year.
The club is still looking for a third person to fill the position after two lengthy searches.
