Kenyon set for United reunion

There will be a boardroom reunion at Old Trafford tomorrow when Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon returns for the first time to the club where he made his name.

The 49-year-old will be greeted by his former finance director David Gill, who succeeded him as Manchestester United supremo.

Kenyon masterminded United's successful business expansion into the Far East and American markets during six years in Manchester.

He was poached by Roman Abramovich last September in acrimonious circumstances and was forced to spend six months on gardening leave before taking up his new post.

At United, he worked alongside chartered accountant Gill. The pair were key figures in brokering the £23million deal which took David Beckham to Real Madrid.
