Juan Villalonga, the chairman of Spanish telco Telefonica, has resigned amid speculation of insider dealing and wrangling with the Spanish government.
Villalonga transformed the company from a monopoly to a fast-growing international telco through a number of alliances and acquisitions. However, the most recent talks with Dutch telco Royal KPN for a $58bn merger fell through in May after government opposition, and it's thought this is the key factor behind Villalonga's departure.
Cesar Alierta, chairman of the Spanish-based tobacco company, Altadis, has been named as his successor.
