More on Ivan Gazidis
Description from Wikipedia:
Ivan Gazidis (born September 13, 1964 in Johannesburg) is a sports business executive, currently the chief executive of English Premier League club Arsenal FC. He is best known for his previous exploits as deputy commissioner of the US's top football division, Major League Soccer.
A South African of Greek descent, Gazidis moved to the United Kingdom at the age of 4 and attended St Edmund Hall at the University of Oxford, where he was twice awarded a blue playing football against the University of Cambridge in 1984 and 1985. He graduated with a degree in law in 1986 and in 1992 he moved to the United States to work for Latham & Watkins.
In 1994 he joined the founding management team of Major League Soccer, becoming in 2001 its deputy commissioner. He oversaw MLS's key strategic and business decisions and its marketing arm, Soccer United Marketing, of which he was president. He also helped promote the Mexican Football Federation and the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
In November 2008 Gazidis accepted the post of chief executive of Arsenal, a post he has formally taken up from 1 January 2009. He succeeds former managing director Keith Edelman and is expected to take over many of the roles formerly undertaken by ex-vice-chairman David Dein.
