Other than a few hours a go i had no idea who this fella was yet people are calling him an asshole and i do not know why?

He'll do fine, he has small shoes to fill. I'm also encouraged by the fact that in football circles he's known as 'The Cesco Kid' (as he always hits his targets).

V Sports and Aston Villa Football Club (AVFC) are delighted to announce the appointment of Francesco Calvo as the Club’s new President of Business Operations, who will start at the Club in July 2025.

Francesco joins the Club from Juventus, where he has been Managing Director of Revenue and Institutional Relationships. In this role, he was responsible for all revenue streams and relationships with key institutional stakeholders in football, such as FIFA, UEFA, ECA and Serie A. Francesco has held several leadership roles over two spells with the Italian giants, as well as senior management positions at FC Barcelona and AS Roma.

Francesco Calvo said: “It is a great honour for me to join this Club at such an exciting time. Everyone in football knows the history of and passionate support for Aston Villa. In the past few years, we’ve seen this begin to be matched by success on the pitch and progress off it under the ambitious ownership of V Sports. I look forward to working with the Chairman, the Board, Unai Emery and everyone at Aston Villa to continue driving this great institution forward.”

Francesco succeeds Chris Heck, who departed the Club at the end of the 2024/2025 season.

Nassef Sawiris, Executive Chairman of Aston Villa FC commented: “We are pleased to welcome Francesco Calvo to Aston Villa. He has an outstanding track record at some of Europe’s biggest clubs and brings a huge amount of experience. Our ambition is for Aston Villa to be competing at the very top level in everything we do, both on and off the pitch. Francesco’s skills, relationships and experience will prove invaluable in making that ambition a reality.”

If he is the candidate to take over surely we cannot condemn him before he even starts!

Is my point
We were right about Steve McLaren.

We need to keep up with the neighbours so expect him to buy me a pint in the Troc before the first home game or he can sling it!
