Papp, who joined Next in 1991, sold the shares at an average price of 6,203.54p each, for a total value of £728,915.95.

Earlier in the day, Next lifted full-year profit guidance after a better-than-expected rise in third-quarter sales as online sales during the coronavirus pandemic drove growth.

Next forecast a pre-tax profit of £365.0m, up £65.0m from a central scenario given in September.

As of 1625 GMT, Next shares were down 1.18% at 6,026.0p.
