Former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke has advised the Red Devils to hire Aston Villa manager Unai Emery as a replacement for Erik Ten Hag.
Yorke, in an interview with SafestCasinoSites.co.uk, believes that Emery’s transformation of Villa from a midtable side to being top of the Champions League table is enough to warrant a move for him as United seek a leader to save what has been a disastrous campaign under Ten Hag.
“What I’m about to say might baffle the football world, but if it was me, I would go and get Unai Emery from Villa.
“He’s the guy that United needs right now. Zidane is a sexier name, but he’s always been reluctant to come because his English isn’t very good.
“That’s been well documented. He’s definitely in the elite managers category. I think Unai Emery is the one manager right now who can match and compete with the likes of Carlo Ancelotti, Zinedine Zidane and Pep.

“I’m not going to be very popular at my old club for saying it, but Emery is the best candidate given Zidane’s reluctance to come to England. He is the man that I would go out and do everything to try and get.”
“With the experience Emery’s got, the transformation he’s brought to Aston Villa, the way he’s conducted himself with the media, he’s the perfect man. Since he went to Villa, he’s been a tremendous success.
“He’s turned Villa into a really top club in the toughest league in the world, got them punching above their weight consistently. He’s turned Villa into a team that can beat anyone. Nobody expects an easy ride against Villa. If he brings his energy, his philosophy, to Man United, I think it’s the perfect fit.”
