Reaction to Aston Villa CE Purslow stepping down
Aston Villa have announced Christian Purslow is to step down from his position as chief executive and director of the club.
Purslow, 59, was appointed in 2018 following commercial successes at both Liverpool and Chelsea.
Villa suffered financial issues after losing the 2017-18 play-off final to Fulham, including an unpaid tax bill.
Purslow said it had been a "total privilege" to lead Villa for the last five years.
In a statement, he added: "I am proud that I leave the club in a much better position on and off the pitch than when I arrived.
