Unai Emery 'to hold talks with Arsenal regarding manager's job'

Arsenal are reportedly due to hold talks with former Paris Saint-Germain boss Unai Emery regarding the manager's vacancy.

The Gunners are looking for a successor to Arsene Wenger, who ended his 22-year spell in charge of the club two weeks ago.

Numerous names have been linked to the post, including Mikel Arteta and Thierry Henry, but according to Spanish football expert Guillem Balague, Emery is a contender.

The journalist told Sky Sports News: "I am hearing that Unai Emery is in London to hold talks with Arsenal. That has to do with the fact he is free, a top candidate and wants the job."

Emery was sacked by PSG earlier this month after a disappointing Champions League campaign, but the club still managed to secure the Ligue 1 title.
