Tottenham Hotspur defender Emerson Royal has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.
The 25-year-old is not a regular starter for the North London club and he needs to leave in search of regular playing time. AC Milan are prepared to provide him with an exit route. The Italian giants are working to get the deal done and Gianluca Di Marzio claims that the player is ‘one step away’ from joining Milan this summer. He added that the transfer is ‘closer than ever’, and the two parties are likely to conclude an agreement soon.
Emerson Royal will look to get his career back on track with regular football and a move to Milan would be ideal for him. He is unlikely to be a regular starter for Tottenham next season. Pedro Porro is the first choice right back at the club and it would be ideal for the Brazilian to move on.
Meanwhile, Tottenham will be able to invest the proceeds from his departure into the playing squad. They need more quality and depth in the side if they want to secure Champions League qualification and push for trophies.
The Brazilian could be a useful squad player for the Italian club next season. He is versatile enough to operate as the right back as well as the left back. He has shown his quality in La Liga and in the Premier League. There is no doubt that he has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in Serie A as well.
