Claure’s new role will be selling the merger to U.S. regulators. He will remain on the board of directors at Sprint. Claure has been Sprint’s CEO since 2014. Moving forward, President and CFO Michel Combs will be elevated to the CEO position at Sprint. Combs already serves on Sprint’s board. He has been with Sprint since early this year.
Before joining Sprint, Combs spent 25 years in various roles at Altice, Vodafone, and France Telecom.
