LIVERPOOL commercial director

— and former Manchester United executive — Matt Scammell is jumping ship to Formula E to become their chief commercial officer. In a move set to be announced imminently, Scammell will be reunited with former United colleague Jamie Reigle, with the pair having worked under the commercial team run by new Old Trafford chief executive Richard Arnold. Reigle spent a decade at United overseeing its global commercial operations. The eighth season of Formula E starts on January 28 and the series will come to London’s ExCeL in July.
