Aston Villa open doors with new appointment – Finance Expert
We’re delighted to welcome football finance expert Dr Daniel Plumley as our exclusive columnist, he’ll be giving his views on the biggest talking points at Aston Villa.
Dan Plumley has insisted that Aston Villa can open new doors after the appointment of Chris Heck was confirmed at Villa Park.
The finance expert admitted Heck has a good reputation with his experience mainly around generating more fan experiences, which he did at the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA.
In his role as President of Business Operations for the Villans, it has been said that increasing the global brand of the club is one of his main roles.
“He has got a good reputation,” he exclusively told Villa News.
“He is very experienced in generating more fan experience, and therefore, he increased the 76ers commercial profiles and things around matchday.
“He’s got calibre in that space and it opens up a couple of new doors, it gives that American angle on how you engage with fans, and how you maximise fan experience by squeezing more out there.
“Also, looking more broadly and commercially, how you stretch that side of the business with new markets and of course, on the last day of the season, getting European football is a boost to that if they can see that through and have a good run in that competition.
“A couple of really good new stories there for Villa to close out the season, and that will be the task, to maximise that as much as possible.”
NSWE have got everything right since the appointment of Unai Emery, with a completely brand new vision ahead of everyone at Aston Villa now.
It is about capitalising on that now, though, and hopefully, the appointment of Heck can help that happen.
In other Aston Villa news, the future of this loanee hangs in the balance as contract talks await.
