Aston Villa's Football Operations President Monchi Set to Depart
Aston Villa's President of Football Operations, Monchi, is set to leave the club.
The 56-year-old's departure comes at a challenging time for Villa, who currently sit 18th in the Premier League following a winless start to the season.
Monchi joined Aston Villa in 2023 after serving as the sporting director at Sevilla, where he had previously collaborated with Villa's head coach, Unai Emery.
Together, they guided Villa to the Europa Conference League semi-finals in 2024 and secured a Champions League spot by finishing fourth in the Premier League that season.
Last season, they advanced to the Champions League quarter-finals, where they were eliminated by the eventual champions, Paris Saint-Germain.
However, this season has not started well for Villa, as they have yet to secure a victory in their first five league matches, managing to score only once. Additionally, they were recently ousted from the EFL Cup after a penalty shootout loss to Brentford.
