Queens Park Rangers appoint new CEO

Lee Hoos has been named the new chief executive officer of Queens Park Rangers.

The 53-year-old will join up with the R's this summer following a four-year stint in the same position with Burnley.

"Lee was the stand-out individual from a very impressive list of candidates we spoke to during an extensive interview process, so I'm delighted he's accepted the role of CEO," chairman Tony Fernandes told the club's official website.

"He has experience of working in football, which was key. He's been responsible for creating and implementing strategies across all areas at his previous clubs, as well as overseeing the day-to-day running of the business, so he is exactly what we were looking for."

Hoos has previously worked for Southampton, Leicester City and Fulham.
