On Friday, we covered multiple claims from the Italian media that Emerson Royal’s exit from Tottenham Hotspur is getting closer after AC Milan made a new bid of €15m.
It was also stated that the Rossoneri are in talks with Tottenham even though the offer is €5m short of Spurs’ request for the right-back.
Tuttosport say the Serie A side are pushing ahead to sign the Tottenham player, and are set to take decisive steps in the coming hours.
The Italian club are looking to bolster their defence with Emerson and Red Bull Salzburg’s Strahinja Pavlović. It’s claimed Milan will ‘prepare a decisive assault’ this weekend to sign the duo.
Milan chairman Giorgio Furlani is in New Jersey and the club’s director, Geoffrey Moncada, is in Italy. The duo, who are working on Milan’s transfers, are in regular contact with the 25-year-old’s agent and Tottenham.
It’s claimed their desire is to complete deals for both the Brazil international and Pavlović ‘within a maximum of 10 days’.
Tuttosport’s summary claims Milan’s ‘final agreement’ to buy the Tottenham player is ‘one step away’, but this isn’t concretely backed up within the report. However, there’s clear desire from them to get this deal over the line.
