La Liga Side Valencia Chair Defends Owner Peter Lim's Commitment To Club

Valencia Chair Layhoon Chan said that club Owner Peter Lim "remained committed to the Spanish side and promised changes" after a "disappointing campaign that has seen supporters vent their frustrations at the Singaporean billionaire," according to Patrick Johnston of REUTERS. Chan: "Over the past few months, I have noticed there is a different understanding or perception of how (fans) see a foreign investor. Peter has many companies and investments all over the world, and Valencia CF is one of his investments. It is not the biggest, but it is currently the most important. Because of his personal commitments, he may not be able to be here all the time. But that does not mean that Peter is not committed to ­Valencia." She added that Lim "was as upset as anyone and the mistakes of the season would be fixed" (REUTERS, 4/1).
