Emerson Royal has been a subject of interest for Italian titans, AC Milan, with Spurs ready to offload the Brazilian this summer.
Emerson Royal looks set to leave Tottenham
It’s long been reported that right-back, Emerson Royal, is expected to be one of the first names to exit Tottenham ahead of the 2024/25 season.
Fabrizio Romano reported back in May that Emerson is one of many Spurs players expected to leave in the summer, with AC Milan having him high on their list.
Spurs now look even more prepared to sell Emerson with the signing of Archie Gray, who joined Spurs today for £30m plus Joe Rodob (Football.London).
Gray, who is naturally a central midfielder, has played 57.7% of his games at right back due to Leeds’ troubles there last season, with the 18-year-old seemingly more suited to Ange’s system than Emerson is. (TransferMarkt)
Emerson himself has spoken about The Rossoneri’s interest in him, telling Andre Hernan’s YouTube channel: “I know Milan are in contact with Tottenham, they asked about me’, before fluttering his eyes for the Italian club stating that their interest ‘makes me very happy”.
‘New appointment’ booked between Milan and Tottenham
Gianluca Di Marzio has since shared an update on Tuesday morning (2/7/24) that there has been a ‘new fixture schedule between Tottenham and AC Milan for Emerson Royal’.
The report claims that ‘contacts continue with Tottenham for Emerson Royal’ with AC Milan ‘pushing for a right-back’ ahead of their new season with newly appointed boss Paulo Fonseca.
The date revealed by Di Marzio for further talks between Milan and Tottenham is ‘between Wednesday 3 and Thursday 4 July’ as the Italian side attempt to see ‘how far they can go with the offer’.

The hope should be that these newly scheduled meetings between AC Milan and Spurs are successful, and Tottenham can aim to mostly recoup their initial investment in the Brazilian from 2021.
An open statement from Emerson claiming how he is flattered by Milan’s interest in addition to his poor performances this season and lack of adaptation to the Postecoglou system makes it seem as though a move to Milan would suit all the parties involved.
