Emery is currently doing a great job on the Aston Villa bench. The Birmingham club are in fourth place in the Premier League and are hoping to qualify for the Champions League for the second time in the last three seasons.
On the other hand, Manchester United are satisfied with the work of interim coach Michael Carrick, but the club’s management will consider all options in the summer before making a final decision.
Several of the most sought-after coaches are currently linked to the national teams, among them are Thomas Tuchel who leads England, Carlo Ancelotti on the bench of Brazil and Julian Nagelsmann who is the coach of Germany.
Carragher believes that a certain perception has been created against Emery in the big clubs.
In his view, the Spaniard is often seen as a coach who exceeds expectations at clubs trying to reach the top, but not as a coach who can lead Europe’s biggest giants.
During his career, he achieved significant success at Valencia, Villarreal and Sevilla, but his spells at Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain left some doubts with the biggest clubs.
Another reason, according to Carragher, relates to the way clubs are managed in modern football. Emery belongs to a generation of coaches who are used to having a lot of control over sports operations, while today in many clubs the sporting directors and the wider management structure have the key word.
The Spanish expert has a contract with Aston Villa until 2029 and still has a significant influence on the transfer policy at the club. However, at the beginning of the year, Villa appointed a new director of football operations, Robert Olabe, who will play an important role in planning future reinforcements.
Meanwhile, interim manager Michael Carrick is getting good results on the Manchester United bench.
In eight games, he recorded six wins, one draw and one loss, which is why the club is considering the possibility of permanently entrusting him with leading the team.
