Tottenham have ‘granted a discount’ to AC Milan in talks over Emerson Royal, with it believed they’ve now ‘lowered their requests’ to try and facilitate a transfer.
That’s according to Gazzetta dello Sport, who say Milan continue to push for the Brazilian as they look to add a full-back to their squad.
They’ve already identified Emerson Royal as the man they want, believing the Tottenham man as the ideal profile for new manager Paulo Fonseca.
A little more work is needed on that front in negotiations with Tottenham, but the positive is that Spurs have granted a discount to the Italian side and lowered their initial requests.
The two sides are said to be negotiating positively and while Tottenham initially started negotiations wanting €30m, they are willing to lower that and bring it closer to Milan’s hard ceiling of €20m.
There is still a gap between the two clubs but Tottenham’s willingness to bring their demands down, or at least be flexible on that front, makes a deal more than possible and Milan believe they can see the finish line and get a deal for Emerson Royal over it.
