Aston Villa's president of business operations Chris Heck will leave the club at the end of the season.

Heck has made the decision to move back to the United States to be closer to his family and will not renew his contract with the club. Reports suggest he could join LIV Golf in a similar role he has had at Villa.

Heck joined Villa in May 2023 having spent nine years as president of the NBA franchise Philadelphia 76ers.

Heck said: "Aston Villa is one of the best clubs in the world, and I am grateful to have had an opportunity to contribute to their success over the past two years.
