Swansea City has been taken over by an American consortium who are determined to continue on with the essence of what the club stands for.
Stephen Kaplan and Jason Levien have bought a 60% stake of the South Wales outfit in a deal reported to be £110million.
The Premier League gave clearance to the takeover on July 1 but an announcement was only made on Thursday night following a dispute between minority shareholders.
Nevertheless, the deal is now done and the two new majority owners have released a statement setting out their vision for the Swans.
"We would like to thank everybody we've met in Swansea for such a warm and friendly welcome," read part of the statement.
"We appreciate how important the football club is to the city of Swansea and we wanted to communicate with you, the fans, our thoughts as new partners in the club.
"We love the passion and the physical style of play.
"Premier League matches are always high drama, where it feels as if anything can happen - and often does! We are blessed to have an opportunity to be owners in such an amazing league.
"We also wanted to be a part of a club that was at the very heart and soul of the community in which it plays. Over the course of a year we looked at a few clubs, but as we dug down deeper, our focus always returned to the Swans.
"This historic and powerful relationship between the fans and the club is the single most important answer to the question, 'Why Swansea City?' It's a unique story of a club rescued by a combination of mainly local businessmen and a group of fans who decided they couldn't stand by and let something they love die.
"We know there is always a sense of fear and trepidation when new owners arrive on the scene but we will do everything in our power to win your trust and ensure there is a long and bright future for Swansea City.
"We look forward to meeting as many of you as possible in person over the coming weeks and months and to another successful season for the Swans."
