Richard Scudamore
Chief Executive Officer of the Premier League since 1999, Richard Scudamore has overseen the transformation of the Premier League, with giant media deals and sponsorships making it the most watched league in the world.
Having worked for information giants Thompson in the newspaper division for 10 years, Scudamore then worked as the chief executive officer of the Football League from 1997 to 1999 and was responsible for broadcast deals and commercial rights for the Football league Cup and Division 1, 2 and 3.
He then switched roles over to the Premier League and continues to run the league. He is also a founding member of the Football Foundation that is a Grassroots project started by the contributions of the Premier League.
For 18 years, Richard Scudamore has worked running a smooth, efficient system overseeing the most viewed league in the world. A football administrator of some repute has also had his fair share of criticism over the years as CEO, but Scudamore strives on building and promoting English football.
