Company NSWE, which is jointly owned and controlled by the pair, have injected 'significant investment capital' into the club – thought to be between £30 million and £35 million.
It is understood NSWE have taken a 55 per cent stake in the club, with the option to assume full control at a later time.
As part of the deal, Tony Xia will become co-chairman and remain on the board.
Steve Bruce is poised to meet Villa’s new owners with his position under increasing scrutiny and Thierry Henry being lined-up as a potential successor.
