Unai Emery revealed his\u00a0admiration for his former Sevilla colleague Monchi as Arsenal look for a new technical director.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Monchi enjoyed great success working alongside Emery at Sevilla, who won the Europa League three times in succession from 2013-14, while Roma made it all the way through to last season’s Champions League semi-finals a year after the former was brought on board.<\/p>\n

Speaking about Monchi at his news conference, Emery said: “I can only say to you that he’s working in Roma.<\/p>\n

“I worked very well with him in Sevilla for three and a half years, and very well too.<\/p>\n

“My relationship with him is good but this work is for the club and the issue is the club’s responsibility.<\/p>\n

“I can say to you only that he is a good person and a good professional.”<\/p>\n

Emery encouraged\u00a0the club to take their time over any appointment but added he would back the hiring of a\u00a0sporting director.<\/p>\n

“Maybe if you do this recruitment very quickly, maybe you can make a mistake,” he added.<\/p>\n

“I think it’s better to do without that, being calm and also finding the best possible person to do this job like we want. I think the club is working on that.<\/p>\n

“It’s not my issue. I can say the same: if the club decided to sign one sporting director, then I will agree with them.”<\/p>\n

Mislintat’s impending departure comes at a time when Emery is keen to strengthen while the transfer window is open, with Hector Bellerin having joined Rob Holding and Danny Welbeck in suffering long-term injuries.<\/p>\n

The Gunners, who are fifth in the table, three points behind Chelsea,\u00a0 lost\u00a0Bellerin for the remainder of the season when he tore his anterior cruciate ligament at the weekend. <\/p>\n

“The club is working [to recruit players],” Emery added.\u00a0“They know our intentions, our possibilities for signing players that can help us, but they work and also with communication to us.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
