Michael Murray: from club promoter to Mike Ashley’s likely successor
Frasers Group’s ‘head of elevation’ has spruced up Sports Direct’s formerly shabby stores
Michael Murray, Frasers Group’s “head of elevation”, looks set to take the lift to the top of the company run by his future father-in-law, after leading an improvement in the look of its once proudly shabby Sports Direct stores.
The 31-year-old Doncaster-born son of a property developer began by helping Sports Direct founder and controlling shareholder Mike Ashley with personal property deals a few years after meeting his daughter Anna on holiday in 2011.
