Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is in discussions with the club over a new contract, according to reports on Friday. The Spanish coach, who has led Villa since October 2022, has guided the team to Champions League qualification and consistent top-half finishes in the Premier League.

Emery's current deal runs until 2027, but the club is keen to secure his long-term future amid interest from other European sides. The 52-year-old former Arsenal, PSG, and Villarreal boss has won 62 of his 118 matches in charge of Villa, with the team currently competing in both domestic and European competitions.
