SC Freiburg is in the Europa League Final. Coach Unai Emery is an experienced one, but SC Freiburg has never been in a final before. Will they win the title? Unai Emery is the record holder of the Europa League. For him, it's already the sixth final - four of the five previous ones ended in his favor. With FC Sevilla, he won the title from 2014 to 2016 three times in a row. In 2019, he rushed with FC Arsenal again into the final - and had to be defeated by the local rival FC Chelsea with 1:4. Two years later, he then won the record as a coach: He won with FC Villarreal. And now he led Aston Villa to the final for the first time.
108 Europa-League games have the 54-year-old Spaniard already completed as a coach. Only 15 of them were lost. Emery is the only coach who has reached the Europa League final with four different clubs.
Ex-BVB-Star Jadon Sancho makes Final-Triple. He was involved in the wondrous BVB run into the Champions League final. The black and yellow lost to Real Madrid, Sancho's loan ended and a new loan began. Via Manchester United, it went to Chelsea. In London, Sancho played a small role. One that was bigger than Timo Werner's, but didn't justify an entry into any of the Blues' halls of fame. At the end of the season, he brought it to five goals and ten assists in a total of 42 appearances. Often he came from the bench. Not much for one who could have become a world star. But one thing happened: At the end of the season, Sancho was already in another European final. This time in the Conference League. At the 4:1 final against Betis Sevilla, Sancho scored.
