Tottenham full-back Emerson Royal is ready to join European giants AC Milan.
The North London club are all set to make quite a few changes to their squad ahead of next season and Emerson Royal is one of the players who has been linked with a move away from the club.
The Brazilian full-back is not considered to be an ideal fit for Ange Postecoglou’s system and Spurs are all set to sanction his departure. AC Milan are the ones who are keen on his signature and according to Corriere della Sera via SportWitness, the former Barcelona star has given his approval to a move to the Italian giants.
The Brazilian right-back is surplus to requirement at Tottenham. While he did feature in 24 matches last term, the majority of those appearances came because of an injury crisis at the back. Emerson still has two years left on his deal at the North London club but they are ready to offload him for €20 million.
AC Milan have been linked with the Brazilian full-back for a while now. The player has already agreed to a transfer to Italy and personal terms are not going to be a problem. With the player available for €20 million, the feeling is that Milan could get the deal done.
However, Emerson is not a priority target for Milan at this point. They are looking to bring in a top-class striker first, as a result, Tottenham’s patience could be tested as they look to offload the Brazilian and bring in a replacement.
