"It’s a much more secondary role,” said Monchi in an interview with El Desmarque.
“I don’t know if you know. The owners of Aston Villa are a company called V Sports, which is made up of three people.
"Before, there were two, now there are three: Nassef Sawiris, Wes Edens, and Michael Angelakis.
“V Sports also owns a few other clubs, has shares in Portugal, also has some collaboration with Real Unión, and they’re growing to try to form an Aston Villa Group, a kind of City Group, and so on.
"And well, a bit in that role, but as I said, a very distant figure and an on-demand consultancy.”
