Susanna Dinnage has been named as the new chief executive of the Premier League, replacing Richard Scudamore.

Dinnage joins from media organization Discovery, where she was the global president of the Animal Planet channel.

Scudamore, 59, is stepping down next month after 19 years at the helm.

“I am excited at the prospect of taking on this fantastic role. The Premier League means so much to so many people,” said Dinnage, who will begin her new job early in 2019.

“It represents the pinnacle of professional sport and the opportunity to lead such a dynamic and inspirational organization is a great privilege.

“With the support of clubs and the team, I look forward to extending the success of the league for many years to come.”
