Head coachArsène WengerDate of birth: 22 October 1949Nationality: FrenchPlaying career: AS Mutzig, FC Mulhouse, AS Vauban, RC StrasbourgCoaching career: RC Strasbourg (assistant coach), AS Cannes (assistant coach), AS Nancy-Lorraine, AS MonacoFC, Nagoya Grampus Eight, Arsenal FC

• Not the most successful of players, Arsène Wenger has more than made up for that as a coach, turning Arsenal intoone of Europe's top teams.

• Born in Strasbourg, Wenger worked at Strasbourg and Cannes before Nancy-Lorraine offered him his big break. Heimpressed sufficiently to be offered the job as coach of Monaco in 1987.

• Within a year Monaco scooped the French title and Wenger the Coach of the Year award. He led the side to 1991French Cup glory, then the 1992 European Cup Winners' Cup final where they lost to SV Werder Bremen. Afterreportedly turning down France and FC Bayern München, he moved on to Japan and enjoyed huge success withGrampus Eight.

• Appointed by Arsenal in September 1996, Wenger became the first non-Briton to win the Premier League, in 1998,adding the first of six FA Cup triumphs. The Gunners lost the 2000 UEFA Cup final to Galatasaray AŞ but claimedanother domestic double in 2002, and in 2003/04 played some thrilling attacking football en route to becoming the firstteam since 1889 to negotiate an English top-flight season unbeaten.

• Wenger nearly topped all his achievements by taking Arsenal to the 2006 UEFA Champions League final, only forFC Barcelona to come from behind to win 2-1. Arsenal's move to their new stadium later that year was instigated byWenger, who ended nine years without a trophy by guiding Arsenal to the 2014 FA Cup and retained the trophy a yearlater, the club's 12th triumph in the competition – setting a new record that was equalled by Manchester United FC 12months later.

Unai EmeryDate of birth: 3 November 1971Nationality: Spanish Playing career: Real Sociedad de Fútbol, CD Toledo, Racing de Ferrol, CD Leganés, Lorca Deportiva CFCoaching career: Lorca Deportiva CF, UD Almería, Valencia CF, FC Spartak Moskva, Sevilla FC, Paris Saint-Germain

• The son and grandson of famous goalkeepers, Unai Emery took his first steps as a footballer in the youth ranks atReal Sociedad, where he played as a left-sided midfielder. Failed to reach the first team but carved out a career in thelower leagues with Toledo, Ferrol, Leganés and Lorca before being forced to retire at 33 having suffered a knee injury.

• He was immediately offered the chance to coach Lorca – the club with whom he had ended his playing career – andtook them up to the second division in his first season in charge, 2004/05. After coming close to taking Lorca into theSpanish top flight the following season, was appointed by Almería ahead of 2006/07 and duly won promotion to theLiga.

• Almería shone among the Spanish elite, finishing the season in eighth place while their manager's reputation soared,earning him a call to replace Ronald Koeman at Valencia, whom he guided to third place in the Liga in both 2009/10and 2010/11.

• Repeated the third-place finish in 2011/12 but stepped down at the end of the campaign, agreeing a two-yearcontract to take charge of Spartak in May 2012 but lasted only till that November.

• Swiftly returned to Spain, and Sevilla, who he led to the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League final victory against SLBenfica via a semi-final defeat of Valencia. Repeated the trick a year later, Sevilla seeing off FC DniproDnipropetrovsk in Warsaw to retain the trophy, before an unprecedented hat-trick with 2016's defeat of Liverpool FC inBasel. That was Emery's last hurrah at Sevilla; he left to join Paris on a two-year deal that June.
