Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi says coach Unai Emery's job is "200 per cent" secure despite the loss of their Ligue 1 crown and failure to make strides in Europe.

Al-Khelaifi was speaking in the aftermath of PSG's last gasp 1-0 win over Angers in the French Cup final on Saturday. Unfortunate Issa Cissokho headed agonisingly into his own net in stoppage time at the Stade de France to give PSG a third consecutive French Cup win.

The Spaniard was given full backing by his employer, with Al-Khelaifi declaring: "I've always said that (Emery) is staying. He is remaining 200 percent for sure with us. We are happy with him, he is happy to be here. We are going to work together next season."
