Unai Emery has become the new head coach of the Birmingham club.

Aston Villa’s management has decided who will be in charge of the team after the sacking of head coach Steven Gerrard.

According to the press service of the Birmingham club, the Spaniard Unai Emery, who previously led Villarreal in his homeland, became the new coach of the team.

The English club has already paid the bosses of the “yellow submarine” 7 million euros for the purchase of a special contract. Emery will receive 6 million euros per season in his new job.

The duration of the agreement between the parties was not reported. The new head coach plans to assume his duties on November 1 after receiving a work permit.

Remember that Emery is not the first experience in the English Premier League. Before Villarreal, in the 2018-19 season, the specialist led the London Arsenal. The Spaniard led the Gunners to the Europa League final, where the teams lost 1-4 to archrivals Chelsea without a chance. In the championship, Arsenal finished fifth.

We remind you, earlier the management of Aston Villa decided to part with Steven Gerrard due to poor results.
