Emery given the biggest challenge of his life by Ancelotti

Italian Serie A outfit Napoli boss Carlo Ancelotti has called out Arsenal boss Unai Emery for what could be described as the biggest challenge of his life ever.

The two teams are expected to meet later on Thursday for the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals with both managers seeking to prove a point.

However, the Napoli boss has called out Arsenal boss to prove he was the better choice for the job at the North London outfit when they eventually meet later today.

It would be recalled that the Italian boss was speculated to have made efforts to land the job as Arsenal manager in the last summer transfer window but the deal failed as the Gunners boss favoured a move for Spanish manager Unai Emery.

This was reported to have gone bad for Carlo Ancelotti and he is ready to prove to the Gunners board that they made a mistake to have chosen Unai Emery ahead of him for the job.

However, the Italian boss admitted that the game would be a difficult one for his team but he is positive that can shock the Arsenal team and go ahead of them to the semi-finals at the end of the day.
