Unai Emery is reportedly given six games to turn around Arsenal's fortunes amid calls for the Spaniard to be sacked.

Unai Emery has been reportedly given six games to turn around Arsenal's fortunes amid calls for the Spaniard to be sacked.

The Gunners boss has only seen his team win one of their last six games, with Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Leicester City leaving the club in sixth place in the Premier League.

Moreover, supporters have displayed anger towards Emery over his handling of the Granit Xhaka saga along with his constant refusal to pick Mesut Ozil.

According to the Evening Standard, however, members of the Arsenal hierarchy ruled out the possibility of sacking Emery after the Leicester defeat and believe that the next six games represent a chance for the manager to turn things around.

The North London club publicly claimed earlier this week that they remained fully behind Emery, who has been at the club since the summer of 2018.

Arsenal's next six games come against Southampton, Eintracht Frankfurt, Norwich City, Brighton & Hove Albion, West Ham United and Standard Liege.
