According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Tottenham defender Emerson Royal has agreed to personal terms with Milan, but negotiations between the Rossoneri and Spurs continue.
Brazilian full-back Emerson Royal has agreed to join Milan.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the latest meeting between the Serie A giants and the player’s representatives produced the result Milan wanted.
Emerson is reportedly ready to sign a five-year deal worth €3m per season. The 25-year-old has offers from other clubs but has prioritised a move to San Siro.
However, the Rossoneri are yet to reach a final agreement with Tottenham.
Emerson Royal: Tottenham defender agrees personal terms with Milan
The initial asking price from the North Londoners was around €25m, but Milan hope to reach an agreement for €18m-20m.
Gazzetta reports that Emerson is a ‘direct request’ from new Milan coach Paulo Fonseca and that Milan hope to shake hands with Tottenham by the weekend so the Brazilian can start the pre-season with the Rossoneri on Monday.
Nevertheless, Milan’s plan is described as ‘ambitious’, so the Rossoneri may have to wait a little longer to welcome the Brazilian.
