Whizkid coach to follow Emery to Aston Villa

New Aston Villa boss Unai Emery will be joined by coach Jaime Arias when he takes charge of the club.

The 23-year-old departed Real Oviedo in the summer to become one of Emery's assistants at Villarreal.

Now La Voz de Galicia states that Arias impressed Emery so much that he will take the young coach with him to the Midlands club.

Emery, a former Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain coach, will also bring Pablo Villanueva with him.

The latter has been with Emery at four different clubs, while goalkeeping coach Javi Garcia could also come to Villa.

However, Villa keeper Emi Martinez is happy with their current goalkeeping coach, Neil Cutler, which could mean that Garcia is not part of Emery's setup.
