Aston Villa have reportedly sent a clear message to Manchester United regarding manager Unai Emery's future at Villa Park. The Spanish coach has been in charge of the West Midlands club since 2022, leading them to European qualification and establishing them as a consistent top-half Premier League side.

Speculation has linked Emery with a potential move to Old Trafford, but Villa's hierarchy are understood to be determined to retain their manager. The club's owners, Nassef Sawiris and Wes Edens, have backed Emery significantly in the transfer market and view him as central to their long-term project.

Emery, who previously managed Arsenal in the Premier League, has rebuilt his reputation in England after successful spells in Spain and France. His contract situation and Villa's stance will be closely monitored as the season progresses.
