Sevilla boss Emery: I had offers from West Ham, Napoli

Sevilla coach Unai Emery admits he turned down an offer from West Ham United.

Emery guided Sevilla to Champions League qualification last season.

"Which coach or player has the possibility to play in the finals? Few. I start training on July 6 and I already have the European Super Cup against Barcelona," he told El Pais.

"And then we will play in the Champions (League). Sevilla gives me this possibility. Moreover, we have managed to create a culture of work at all levels.

"Napoli offered me a project with economic strength but without the Champions (League). And I had a nice option from West Ham, a very sizeable economic."
