On Wednesday, we covered claims from Italy that AC Milan will make a decisive contact with Tottenham Hotspur over signing Emerson Royal and the deal should be agreed in the next few hours.
That hasn’t happened yet and Calciomercato provide the reason for it, while insisting that the deal to take the right-back to the San Siro could go through in the next few days.
Tottenham want €15m plus €3m bonuses to sanction the 25-year-old’s sale this summer. The Serie A side’s offer, on the other hand, is around €17m, of which €2m is in bonuses.
Despite this, Calciomercato claim the Brazilian’s transfer to Milan is ‘not at risk’ and Paulo Fonseca’s side expect to close the deal by this weekend. The two parties are waiting for ‘one last yes’ from Tottenham, which could arrive after the last details are ironed out.
Sky Italia, relayed by MilanNews.it, claim the details around the bonuses part of the deal still needs to be sorted out between Ange Postecoglou’s side and Milan.
The website claims Milan’s negotiations for Emerson have been ‘truly endless’ as they first made contact with Tottenham back in May. This clearly shows the growing annoyance in Italy over Milan’s efforts to get this deal over the line.
