New directors in Swansea board changes

Swansea City's board has undergone a reshuffle following the club's American takeover.

Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan led a consortium which bought a 68% controlling stake in the Swans in July.

American investors Robert Hernreich and Romie Chaudhari join as directors, while Leigh Dineen leaves the board despite remaining vice-chairman.

Brian Katzen has resigned having sold the 21.1% share he held with business partner Jeffrey Crevoiserat.

John van Zweden is another to step down from the board having sold his 5.3% stake in full.

The other long-term directors who have left are Steve Penny, Gwilym Joseph and Don Keefe, though none of those three were shareholders.
