Altrincham Director of Football Operations Rob Esteva is set to step down this summer.
Work commitments off the pitch were one of the main considerations behind the resignation from the National League club that was tendered “with a heavy heart.”
Rob has been responsible for football operations at the club since initially joining the board in 2017..
“As I prepare to leave, I have to say the football operations could hardly be in a healthier state – I believe it’s the best squad we’ve ever assembled, run by a stable and high-calibre management team as part of a fully-established full-time professional outfit.”
Altrincham lost to Bromley in the play-off semi-finals in April after finishing fourth in Step 1, their highest placing since the 1994/95 season.
Co-chairman Lawrence Looney paid tribute:
“We appreciate all you have done, Rob, and are sorry to see you go, much as we fully understand why the decision has been taken.
“People do come and go. It is part and parcel of football. The important thing is making certain that, as a club, you keep moving forward, and, be in no doubt, that’s what we will do.”
