Fulham will reportedly look to sign 26-year-old Brazilian international Emerson Royal from Serie A club AC Milan in the winter transfer window.
According to a report by Sky Sport Italia, Emerson Royal is the subject of interest from Fulham. The Cottagers have been scouring the market for a right-back heading into the winter transfer window and have set their sights on the AC Milan wide player. However, the West London club will face stiff competition from Galatasaray for the Brazilian international.
Emerson Royal and his AC Milan journey so far
Emerson Royal has struggled to stamp his authority since joining AC Milan from Tottenham Hotspur in a deal worth €15 million plus add-ons in the summer transfer window. The South American full-back has been in and out of the starting lineup at the Serie A club in the last six months, trading places with Davide Calabria.
While the 26-year-old has amassed nearly 2,000 minutes of game time across 25 appearances in all competitions, he has been unimpressive in many games and has yet to score a goal or provide an assist. In addition, the former Tottenham defender will soon face the heat from Kyle Walker.
The Manchester City captain is closing in on joining AC Milan, with the veteran Englishman sealing an agreement on personal terms with the Serie A club. As for Emerson, the Brazilian international’s stock in the market remains high, with Fulham among his prospective suitors in the winter transfer window.
London calling again?
Fulham’s interest in Emerson Royal is understandable. The Cottagers have been scouring the market for a right-back heading into the winter transfer window after losing Kenny Tete to a knee injury. So, Timothy Castagne is the only right-back in Marco Silva’s squad.
Several right-backs, including Milan van Ewijk, have thus emerged on Fulham’s radar, with Emerson also a viable target for the West London club. However, the Cottagers face stiff competition from Galatasaray for the former Tottenham full-back.
The report has not revealed whether Fulham and Galatasaray want to sign the 26-year-old Brazilian international in a permanent deal. It will be interesting to see what the future has in store for Emerson.
