Greg Clarke is confirmed as the new chairman of the Football Association.

Greg Clarke has been named as the new chairman of the Football Association.

The English governing body has confirmed that Clarke's appointment was ratified by the FA council at Wembley this afternoon, one month after he was approved by the FA board.

Clarke replaces Greg Dyke, who stepped down from his position in June following a three-year spell.

A statement from Clarke read: "I'm delighted to be confirmed at the next chairman of the FA and I'm relishing the challenge. My experience as a council member for the FA has given me an insight into the excellent work this organisation undertakes at every level of the game.

"It's an honour for me to be joining at such a pivotal point in its recent history and I'd like to thank the board and the council for their continued support.

"The FA has the ability to have the most positive effect on football in this country - from the grassroots game all the way through to the men's and women's senior England teams. I'm looking forward to continuing that good work and playing my part in representing an FA that we can all be proud of."

Clarke - a former Football League chief executive - will officially begin his new role on Friday, September 2.
