Yeah, but AM kinda need a team principal right now .

Anyway, I'll keep treating it as rumour for the time being, but according to BBC sports :

However, Wheatley's existing contract with Audi means it could be some time before he is able to join Aston Martin.

Audi team principal Jonathan Wheatley has left the team with immediate effect.

and

He will have to serve a period of 'gardening leave' before joining another team, the length of which will have to be negotiated between himself, Audi and potentially a future employer.
