Tottenham Hotspur defender Emerson Royal has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.
The 24-year-old Brazilian defender has not been a regular starter for the North London club since the arrival of Pedro Porro and he might need to leave the club in order to play regular first-team football.
A report from Inter Live claims that Real Madrid are keen on the 24-year-old Brazilian fullback and they could look to make a move for him in the coming weeks. Los Blancos ‘have already chosen’ the former Barcelona player as a target and it remains to be seen whether they are ready to pay the asking price.
Tottenham reportedly value the player at €35 million. Real Madrid certainly have the financial resources to pay the reported asking price and it remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
Royal has not been able to perform at a high level consistently since his move to the London club and returning to Spain could be an exciting opportunity for him. Real Madrid are the biggest club in the world and the chance to play for them can be hard to turn down for any player.
Real Madrid are reportedly desperate for a quality right back. Dani Carvajal is in his twilight years and they need to plan for a future without him. Royal could be a useful player for them and it will be interesting to see whether they can get the deal done.
