Have your say on Unai Emery's best-ever Aston Villa signing
Since his arrival at Villa Park in October 2022, the Spanish coach has transformed the club from relegation scrappers to European trophy winners.
And while his work on the pitch has not gone unnoticed, Emery’s approach in the transfer market has also been notable.
Emery, alongside Roberto Olabe and Damian Vidagany, as well as former chief Monchi, they have all played pivotal roles when it comes to recruitment over the past few years.
And while they’ve not got all of their signings spot on during their respective spells at Villa Park, they have managed to sign some players that have arguably pushed Villa to even higher heights.

To get it, it's a quick and easy one-two:
With the international break now in full swing, BirminghamLive is giving Villa fans the chance to decide who is the best among those.
Is it Morgan Rogers, whose form at Villa Park pushed them into the Champions League, before his exit to Chelsea secured the club a huge fee?
Maybe it could be midfielder Amadou Onana, who had been a near ever-present in the heart of Villa’s midfield ahead of his serious knee injury.
Youri Tielemans could also be up there, who arrived on a free transfer from Leicester City in 2023 and proved to be one of the most effective midfielders in the Premier League despite a slow start. He might have slipped down the list following his exit to Manchester United - and the recent 4-4 draw between the two sides at Old Trafford.
Defender Pau Torres could also be among those considered by Villa fans, while some could even suggest Marco Asensio, who had a fantastic impact in the Second City after his arrival from Paris Saint-Germain.
Or do you have any other signings in-mind?
