Arsenal boss Unai Emery says he is not planning to seek advice from ex-manager Arsene Wenger.
Emery, who departed from Paris Saint Germain, replaced Wenger at the end of 2017/18 campaign, which saw the Frenchman end his 22-year reign to an end. The Spaniard says he plans to speak to Wenger at the annual managers’ meeting in Nyon, but wants to put his own stamp over affairs at the club.
“Each coach needs to know the players. Not all the coaches have the same relationship with a player and I have my personality. I want to know with my direct opinion, with my direct conversations with the player. I have information on the players for the club, from the people around me,” he told a news conference.
“The information with Arsene is also important for me but the best is my direct relationship and conversations with the players. Normally, when we meet every year in Nyon with the coaches, we have a conversation together. I am sure we will meet together in the next week or month or in the near future,” he added.
