Brazilian international Emerson Royal is currently in the crucial stages of his transfer from Tottenham Hotspur to AC Milan of Italy, according to the latest reports from renowned sports journalist Di Marzio. The 25-year-old defender has already reached a final agreement with Milan over the transfer and is now anxiously waiting for Tottenham Hotspur to give him the official go-ahead to leave the club.
It is reported that once the Tottenham Hotspur side nodded in agreement, Emerson will immediately depart for Milan to accept the new owner of a comprehensive medical examination. This medical examination is an important part of the transfer process, aimed at ensuring that the player's physical condition meets the requirements of Milan, so as to successfully complete the transfer procedures.
Regarding the financial details of the transfer, Emerson's fixed transfer fee is reportedly set at €15 million. In addition, the contract contains a series of floating clauses, which will be triggered depending on the player's performance in his new team and the achievement of specific accomplishments, such as the number of appearances, goals scored or honors won. The inclusion of the floating clauses makes it possible for the total value of the transfer to exceed the fixed transfer fee, providing an additional incentive for both clubs.
Emmerson, an experienced defender, has played consistently over a number of seasons since joining Tottenham Hotspur. Last season, he made 24 appearances for Spurs, including 13 starts, and contributed one goal. His physicality, defensive ability and occasional offensive contributions have earned him recognition from fans and the coaching staff. However, with the reshuffling of the squad and changing tactical demands, Emerson's future at Tottenham became less certain, prompting him to seek a new challenge.
