Milan are reportedly setting their sights on Tottenham Hotspur’s full-back, Emerson Royal, for a potential summer transfer.Despite facing criticism for his performances at Spurs, particularly in the aftermath of their recent defeat to Chelsea, Emerson remains a target of interest for the Rossoneri.
According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews), the Rossoneri are in the market for a full-back this summer, with Emerson emerging as the primary candidate. Milan’s admiration for the Brazilian dates back to his time before joining Tottenham, when Barcelona expressed interest in him.
Emerson’s versatility, being capable of playing on both flanks, aligns perfectly with Milan’s requirements. However, one potential hurdle in negotiations could be Tottenham’s valuation of the player, currently standing at around €30 million.
Milan, known for their prudent approach in the transfer market, are unlikely to meet such a high price tag for a full-back. Instead, they reserve such significant expenditures for signings in the striker position.
