Tottenham Hotspur defender Emerson Royal is close to joining AC Milan, with negotiations reportedly nearing their final stages.

That is according to journalist Matte Moretto, who claims that the transfer fee for the Brazilian international is expected to be just under €20 million.

Emerson has been linked with a move away since weeks, with Spurs keen to cash in on the full-back who is no longer in plans of Ange Postecoglou.

Emerson only made 21 League appearances last season, starting in just 11 of those game, filling in as cover in various positions due to the injuries.

He has lost his starting place in the team since Pedro Porro’s arrival.

With his contract running until June 2026, Tottenham is eager to find a suitable transfer to maximize his value.

AC Milan have shown strong interest in him and have reportedly agreed personal terms with the player as well.

While Barcelona, his former club, are also said to be interested in signing him, Milan appears to be the most likely next stop for the full-back.
