The Premier League's diversity is leading the way in Europe

Chelsea's agonising penalty shooutout win against Eintracht Frankfurt booked their place in the Europa League final, where London rivals Arsenal awaited them after dispatching of Valencia in normal time. As well as moving their derby over to Baku, they followed the example set by Tottenham and Liverpool in the Champions League days before them and set up another all-English European final in what has been a truly unprecedented week of European football.

Whilst Theresa May struggles to get Britain out of the EU, British sides themselves are having no such problems staying in Europe, and for the first time ever, all four teams in the finals of Europe's two biggest continental competitions will hail from the same country.

However, what is worth noting is that out of England's top sides, none of them are led by a British manager. Instead, clubs have targeted the best managers from all around the world and brought them into the Premier League, which in itself has become something of a Mecca for foreign coaches looking to implement their styles of play and tactics on quality players in a competitive division.

Although there have only been two seasons in which no English team has reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League since the last all-English clash between Chelsea and Manchester United in 2008, there is little doubt that Spanish football, led by Real Madrid and Barcelona, has dominated the European scene in the past decade.

However, knowing that they wouldn't be able to sign the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, the Premier League's biggest clubs opted for a different tactic: find the best coaches from around Europe and let them build their squad and their project how they see fit.

Jürgen Klopp has been given time and resources at Liverpool, and has now completely changed the Reds' fortunes, leading them to back-to-back Champions League finals and making them capable of humilliating even the all-powerful Barcelona with the best player of all time in their ranks.

Mauricio Pochettino has led Tottenham to the first European Cup final in the club's history: an incredible achievement made all the more impressive by the circumstances that faced his side. The Argentinian has not been able to sign any players for the past two transfer windows due to the spending on Spurs' new stadium, and they had to reach the final without their main goal threat in Harry Kane - as well as a host of other injuries that plagued their team. 

Unai Emery once again reiginited his love affair with the Europa League and has put Arsenal in a position to win silverware in his first season at the North London club. The Basque coach left PSG to move to the Gunners, and, despite looking well off the pace in the Premier League at times, has done well to lead them to a European final for the first time since their 2005/6 Champions League final defeat to Barcelona.

Italian Maurizio Sarri seems to have spent half of his first season at Chelsea putting out fires in the dressing room whilst being constantly criticised by Blues fans for his team's style of play and his tactical decisions, but has still managed to keep his side competitive. As well as reaching a European final, Sarri reached the League Cup final and has led Chelsea to a top-four finish and Champions League qualification.

Meanwhile, it is Manchester City who have the Premier League title in their hands going into the final round of fixtures this weekend. So, it is not Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool or Tottenham (Europe's strongest sides on the biggest stage this season) who look likely to win their own domestic league title. Champions-elect Manchester City are of course led by Pep Guardiola - who himself is no Brit. 

English football may be on the rise, but it has the diversity brought by managers from all around the world to thank for its success.
