By Associated PressMADRID: Spanish club Valencia removed president Anil Murthy from his post on Monday following the leak of private conversations that made the club’s leadership look bad. The daily Superdeporte published audio recorded from a private dinner attended by the president and some businessmen in April. Among his comments, Murthy jokingly said he would kill player Carlos Soler if he leaves the club without a transfer. In the meantime, Khojama Kalimuddin, a non-executive board director, will stand in as president of the board of directors to oversee the administration of the club. “The board would like to reiterate that Valencia CF are fully committed to achieving long-term growth and success, and to complete the construction of the new Mestalla Stadium,” the club said.
