Arsenal chief executive Vinai Venkatesham is set to leave his position at the North London club next summer, reports The Athletic journalist David Ornstein.
The British-Indian joined the Gunners in 2010 as head of global partnerships, becoming managing director in 2018 after Ivan Gazidis left for AC Milan.
Venkatesham became the chief executive of Arsenal in 2020 but has decided to leave as he is seeking to pursue a new challenge.
The interim period will give the Gunners time to work on a succession plan, while the former chief commercial officer will continue to oversee the day-to-day running of the club and report to the board.
