Unai Emery, General Manager, Newcastle United
I am grateful for the interest of a great club, but even more grateful to be here. No matter how much noise there was yesterday in another country, within the club there was transparency and loyalty with the Roig family and with my squad, and for me, it is the most important thing. Villarreal is my home and I am 100% committed. That is why I communicated to Fernando Roig my decision to want to continue being part of this project because of the commitment and respect that I perceive from the club and from my players, which is mutual and reciprocal.
