Unai Emery confirmed on Friday the news many had predicted ever since Paris Saint-Germain were eliminated from the Champions League in March, as he revealed his time at the Parc des Princes is coming to an end.
Many said the Spaniard, who previously excelled in Europe with Sevilla, was lucky to even make it to his second season after PSG exited the Champions League in the first knockout phase last term, particularly given the Ligue 1 title was won by Monaco.
But PSG put their faith in Emery and he has at least repaid that with a league and Coupe de la Ligue double, with the final of the Coupe de France against minnows Les Herbiers still to come on May 8.
That failure in the Champions League has proven costly, however, as Emery confirmed he will leave the club at the end of the campaign, with his contract set to expire.
Thomas Tuchel is the favourite to inherit the position from Emery and, while making a tilt for the Champions League will be his primary goal, he will do well to match Emery's overall record in Ligue 1, as we look over the Basque coach's PSG stats – with the help of Opta data.
