Unai Emery owns the majority of Real Union, a Spanish team, and Aston Villa are reportedly about to finalize their partnership through V Sports.
Two and a half years ago, the head coach of Villa purchased a controlling interest in the third-tier club. Union, a founding club of La Liga, has had financial difficulties lately.
Union has played in Spain’s third division ever since they were demoted from the second division in the 2009–10 campaign. The 52-year-old Emery was raised only three miles from Irundarra, where both his father and grandfather were players for the team.
Antonio, Emery’s grandfather, was a Union mainstay who participated in 110 games for the Spanish team between 1928 and 1935. He played goalie.
Juan, Emery’s father, participated in 15 games for Union in 1957–1959 as well. In his 16-year career, he played for nine clubs, including Granada, Deportivo La Coruna, and Alaves. He was a goalkeeper by trade as well.
According to Noticias de Gipuzkoa, V Sports is going to make a new investment in Union. In an attempt to diversify their holdings, the Villa owners have already partnered with ZED FC and Vitória Sport Clube, two teams from Portugal and Egypt, respectively.
Earlier this year, Villa and the Japanese team Vissel Kobe became the latest to agree on a strategic partnership. Together with cooperatively exchanging concepts, methods, and best practices, the two teams will seek to establish a bilateral development framework for players and staff as part of their new partnership with Vissel Kobe. This framework will improve youth development. In the end, it will create opportunities for Villa and gifted Japanese players to play in Europe.
