Emery signed a three-year contract with the organization. Reportedly, the two sides have been negotiating for months and just needed to finalize some minor details after Calleja’s departure.

Emery will be tasked with returning Villarreal to the top of La Liga and UEFA Champions League soccer. The club hasn’t played in UCL since 2011, although they came close to qualifying this season, finishing fifth in La Liga.

Unai Emery has been without a job since November when he was fired by Arsenal following a series of poor results. He was linked with several jobs since then, including taking over Premier League side Everton and heading to Spain and sitting at Real Betis’ hot season. However, Everton hired Carlo Ancelotti while Betis opted for Manuel Pellegrini, leaving Emery available for Villarreal.

Emery saw his biggest coaching success with Sevilla, leading the team to three consecutive Europa League trophies.  He also has Ligue one trophy with PSG.

Emery leaves Arsenal at 8th place on the Premier League standings and 19 points behind the first-placed Liverpool. The team has also failed to get a win in their last seven games.

“Our most sincere thanks go to Unai and his colleagues who were unrelenting in their efforts to get the club back to competing at the level we all expect and demand,” said the club’s board member Josh Kroenke. “We wish Unai and his team nothing but future success.”

Arsenal has appointed club legend Freddie Ljungberg as the interim manager while the search for a permanent solution is underway.

“We have asked Freddie Ljungberg to take responsibility for the first team as interim head coach,” Kroenke added. “We have full confidence in Freddie to take us forward. The search for a new head coach is underway and we will make a further announcement when that process is complete.”

Unai Emery is best known for his stint with Sevilla between 2013 and 2016, during which he won three Europa Leagues. Emery then spent two seasons with Paris Saint-Germain, winning one League 1 title, before being named Arsene Wenger’s replacement at Arsenal in 2018.

Despite an encouraging start in London, Emery narrowly failed to qualify for Champions League in his first season with the team. The highlight of his run with the team is Europa League Finals appearance last season where Arsenal suffered a 4-1 defeat to their cross-town rivals Chelsea.

According to reports, Arsenal is considering several candidates as Emery’s replacement, with Wolves’ manager Nuno Espirito Santo and Manchester City’s assistant and former Arsenal midfielder Mikel Arteta being favorites for the job.
