Finance Director Angela Lowes has stepped down from her role on the board at Sunderland AFC with immediate effect.

Lowes has worked at the club for more than two decades, and has served in her current role during the tenures of both Ellis Short and Stewart Donald.

Igor Levin, a legal representative of the Louis-Dreyfus family, has been appointed alongside Patrick Julien Treuer, CFO of the Louis Dreyfus company.
