Aston Villa are gearing up to discuss a new long-term contract with their manager Unai Emery this summer. They've decided to extend his current contract by another year, thanks to an option they've activated.
Originally, Emery's contract was set to run until summer 2026, but now it could stretch until 2027.
This move deals a blow to Bayern, as they've had their sights set on Emery. Bayern's plans took a hit when Xabi Alonso and Julian Nagelsmann, their top choices, opted to stay with Bayer Leverkusen and Germany respectively.
Now, Bayern seems to be turning their attention to Ralf Rangnick, former interim boss of Man United. Despite his challenges at Old Trafford, Rangnick's recent success with Austria has caught Bayern's eye, and talks have reportedly already begun.
