“I am very happy to take this step and the responsibility of leading this club (…) There’s a great chemistry in Aston Villa. And the element of the fans’ support also makes the difference to feel like home.
“We are really excited to continue this journey with no limits to our dreams,” said Emery on the club’s website.
Club Chairman Nassef Sawiris was also happy to have secured Emery’s services until the end of the decade.
“We are building something special here at Aston Villa with Unai at its core and we are delighted that he has signed a new deal with the club until 2029,” he commented.
