Aston Villa’s development of Unai Emery is a’statement of intent’.
We’re delighted to welcome Aston Villa podcaster Ty Bracey as our exclusive Aston Villa columnist; each week, he’ll share his thoughts on the club’s most pressing issues…
According to Ty Bracey, V Sports’ decision to form a partnership with a club in which Unai Emery owns a majority stake is a “statement of intent.”
Noticias de Gipuzkoa, a Spanish news outlet, reported on Monday (6 November) that Villa owner Nasseff Sawiri’s company is planning to invest in Real Union.
The agreement with the Spanish third-tier club, in which the Villans boss purchased a controlling stake two years ago, is V Sports’ latest business venture, following investments in Egypt’s ZED FC, Portugal’s Vitoria Sport Clube, and Japan’s Vissel Kobe.
Bracey believes the collaboration will take Sawiri and Emery beyond the owner and manager roles as they look to start a business together.
Bracey told Villa News exclusively: “I don’t think they’re doing it to keep Emery happy.” I believe it is simply a statement of intent between the owner and the manager. They’re taking it a step beyond the owner and manager – they’re going into business together.
“If he has a stake in it, he is a part of the business, and that is precisely what they are doing by taking a stake in it as well.” That is extremely important, and I believe it is massive and beneficial to us. It’s yet another indication that Unai Emery is cooperating well with the owners.
“I can’t say for certain that it’s a long-term commitment to each other and Aston Villa, but I’d like to think it is.” I’d like to believe he’ll be around for a long time.
“I want him to lead us all the way to victory.” He’s the best manager we’ve ever had, and I want to keep it that way.”
