Rohan Sharma steps down as Odisha FC CEO

Rohan Sharma has announced on his own social media that he is stepping down as the CEO of Indian Super League franchise Odisha FC.

As part of the clubs restructuring, Raj Athwal will now be running the affairs of Odisha FC after having been appointed as club president a few months back.

Rohan Sharma in a tweet yesterday wrote, “Hey everyone, today is my last day working full time for OFC. I will be stepping down from CEO to be an advisor to the club. This decision did not come lightly. I wouldn’t have made this decision if I didn’t feel Raj could run this club solo. I know he will be brilliant.”

Rohan Sharma will stay on at Odisha FC as advisor to the club as he takes a step back within the club set-up.
