Alan Knott-Craig denies Cell C CEO rumours
Former Vodacom CEO Alan Knott-Craig has denied that he has reached an agreement with Cell C to take over as CEO at the company.
Late last year (2011) news emerged that former Vodacom CEO Alan Knott-Craig was in discussions with Cell C which could see him head up the company.
At the time Knott-Craig confirmed that he was in tentative talks with Cell C, but he was quick to point out that he had not signed a contract with any company.
Speculation about Knott-Craig heading up Cell C has once again flared up with sources saying that he will take over as long as there is adequate funding to execute his plans.
Knott-Craig told MyBroadband via his spokesperson Kevin Schmidt that these rumours are untrue, and that nothing has changed since the news reports surfaced last year.
According to Schmidt, Knott-Craig said that he was perplexed by the speculation and added that he does not know why these rumours started.
Industry sources however maintain that it is likely that Knott-Craig will take over at the helm as Cell C CEO, replacing acting CEO Simon Duffy.
