Default Sports Direct opens Big £10million store in Birmingham

Sports Direct: New Boss Michael Murray



He is 32
[Mr Murray, who is engaged to
Mr Ashley's eldest daughter,
has been leading efforts
to modernise the business
in a bid to appeal to younger shoppers.]



[In his first interview in the job
he told the BBC Mr Ashley was "not pulling the strings".

He also insisted that the High Street is not dead,
with plans to open up to 10 new flagship stores across the UK]
