AC Milan continue to express strong interest in Tottenham Hotspur’s Brazilian right-back, Emerson Royal.

With the Australian looking to offload players who don’t fit into his plans, Emerson’s future at North London hangs in the balance.
Recent reports indicate that AC Milan has intensified their pursuit of the Brazilian international, initiating discussions with Emerson’s agent, Stefano Castagna.
According to the latest from from journalist Luca Bendoni, the Serie A giants met with the player’s agent and both parties are exploring conditions for a potential transfer ahead of the window.
While talks are not advanced yet, the Italian giants are keen on adding the Spurs right-back to their roster.

Emerson has lost his starting place, with Pedro Porro cementing his position as the first-choice right-back under Postecoglou’s management.
Despite having two years left on his contract, which extends until June 2026, Emerson’s future at Tottenham appears uncertain as Postecoglou does not view him as a key figure in his plans.
Tottenham reportedly values Emerson at around £20 million, a price tag that aligns with his current market value.
With AC Milan on the lookout for a dependable full-back, the upcoming negotiations could pave the way for Emerson’s departure to Italy.
