He will replace Jamie Drummond Smith on Thursday, the report said.

Smith was a corporate restructuring expert, and stepped down from billionaire Philip Green's company in September after five months as an interim chairman.

Arcadia Group did not respond to a Reuters request for a comment.

Coppel will also become the chairman of Arcadia's direct holding company Taveta Investments and Top Shop Top Man Limited, Sky News reported.
