Aston Villa have seen a great revival in their fortunes since Unai Emery took over the club as manager in November 2022.
They were battling relegation when Steven Gerrard was at the helm of affairs, but the Spaniard inspired a series of excellent results to guide them to a seventh-place finish.
And last season, Emery secured them Champions League football for the first time in more than 40 years with a fourth-place Premier League finish.
