Unai Emery has been sacked as Arsenal manager after 18 months in charge.

The Spaniard, who previously led Paris St-Germain to the French league title and won three Europa Leagues with Sevilla, was appointed Gunners boss in May 2018, succeeding Arsene Wenger.

BBC reports that he is to be replaced on a temporary basis by assistant and former Arsenal midfielder Freddie Ljungberg.
