AC Milan keen to sign Emerson Royal

AC Milan are scouting the market in search of a full-back for Paulo Fonseca for next season after reinforcing the attacking department with the arrival of Alvaro Morata. Their first target is Emerson Royal.

Although the trail seemed to have gone cold in recent times, according to ‘Sky Sport’, the Serie A side have stepped up contacts with Tottenham to close the transfer as soon as possible.

The 25-year-old, who was brought to Europe by Real Betis in 2018, wore the Andalusian side's shirt until 2021, when he was bought by Barcelona.

In 2022 he flew to the Premier League to wear the Tottenham shirt, where he has played a total of 100 games and scored four goals. His price tag is 20 million euros, but the Italians are hoping to get a discount.
