Aston Villa’s manager is Unai Emery, who has been in the role since November 2022.
The Spaniard has an impressive CV, having taking charge at a number of European giants.
He started his coaching career at Lorca Deportiva in the Spanish third division, achieving promotion in his first season at the helm, before following the feat at his second club Almería, achieving promotion to the Spanish first division in his first campaign in charge.
Emery’s impressive start in management earned him a move to Valencia, taking over from his predecessor Ronald Koeman, where he achieved three third-place finishes in La-Liga during his four-year rein at the club.
The former midfielder had a brief stint at Spartak Moscow before returning to Spain as manager of Sevilla. His time there was memorable for winning the UEFA Europa League three times in four seasons.
In 2016, Emery joined Paris Saint-Germain, maintaining a win percentage of 76.32% and claiming seven trophies in two years at the French giants.
The European specialist joined Arsenal in May 2018, for his first stint in England. He reached a European final with the Gunners but was unable to overcome London rivals Chelsea before being dismissed in November 2019.
Emery returned to his homeland to take over his fifth Spanish team at Villarreal in 2020. He won yet another Europa League and reached a Champions league semi-final, before joining current club Aston Villa.
During his time as Villa boss, he has taken his side to European competitors, achieving UEFA Champions League qualification at the Midlands outfit for the first time since 1983.
