“I haven’t said ‘no’ to Newcastle”

Unai Emery did not close the door to take the reins of Newcastle. After the victory against Young Boys, the Villarreal coach still confirmed the interest of the ‘magpies’ in signing him, although he stressed that there is still no offer on the table.

“I do not open or close the door to anything. The only certain thing is that I tried to get away from the noise. There is an interest and I have no further news of that interest and there is no offer. I am focused on Villarreal and in principle I have not thought about anything beyond that, “Emery told Movsitar +.

“I have not said ‘no’ to interest. If this is confirmed, I will talk to the Villarreal board about it. I would have respect for the squad and the club. I would first consult it. If a decision was made, it would go either way.” he snapped in statements that can be considered an invitation to the English club to present a firm offer.

“I am grateful to Villarreal. I have spoken with Fernando Roig (president) and I have told him that there is interest, but there is still no offer. The first one who is uncomfortable is me,” he said.

The news of Newcastle’s interest in Emery jumped on Tuesday in England. The Times advanced the will of the English club, recently acquired by a Saudi investment fund that makes it the new rich in the Premier.

The ‘magpies’ are with an interim coach after firing Steve Bruce for poor results. Newcastle are second to last in the standings and they still don’t know what it’s like to win this year.
