Vanessa Gold has joined the board of West Ham United.
Gold is the daughter of former co-chairman David Gold, who passed away last season.
West Ham joint-chair David Sullivan said: I am delighted to welcome Vanessa to the Board of Directors at West Ham United.
David Gold and I were close friends and business partners for almost half a century and it is very reassuring to see David's legacy continued in his name. West Ham United is a club built on strong family values and principles, and it is important that we continue to cherish that.
Vanessa is already a familiar and loyal member of the West Ham family, and we look forward to working together."
Gold also said: West Ham United is a Club that means so much to me and my family. My late father's deep-rooted history and love of the Club is well known and it will be an honour and privilege to continue our family legacy by joining the West Ham United Board, bringing my own experience and supporting the Club and everyone associated with it in every way I can."
