Aston Villa’s Manager, Unai Emery has been named the Premier League Manager of the Month for April after leading his team to five victories in seven games.
One of the standout performances was the impressive 3-0 win against Newcastle United at Villa on April 15th.
Since taking over from Steven Gerrard in November 2022, Emery has done an exceptional job with the Villans, transforming them from relegation contenders to potential European qualifiers by the end of the 2022/23 season.
This is Emery’s first time winning the Premier League Manager of the Month award, although he was previously nominated in January and March of this year.
Emery is currently in his second stint in the league, having managed Arsenal from May 2018 to November 2019.
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland won the Premier League player of the month award after scoring six goals in the month of April.
The announcement was made via the official Twitter account of the Premier League, shortly after the Football Writers’ Association named him the Footballer of the Year.
This latest achievement adds to the long list of accolades the footballer has earned throughout the season.
