We are entering the week of Emerson Royal's transfer to Milan. Moncada and Furlani hope to finalize this long negotiation with Tottenham by the end of Wednesday, writes Calciomercato.com. The next hours are crucial with the London-based club, which is already working to find a replacement for the Brazilian full-back.
Tottenham has been clear with Milan even in recent hours: 15 million euros are needed as a fixed amount or the deal won’t go through. The Rossoneri have offered 13 million euros and, last weekend, expressed to President Levy their willingness to reach 14 million euros. It's not enough; Spurs are adamant about the figure. Bonuses can be discussed, but not the guaranteed amount. This is a prerequisite to finalize the deal.
After careful internal evaluations, Milan is inclined to make this effort, and the Emerson Royal deal does not seem to be in question. The Brazilian right-back already has an agreement with the Rossoneri for a 4-year contract, with an option for a fifth year, at 3 million euros per season. The deal is unlikely to be completed today but should be finalized between tomorrow and Wednesday. Final details are being resolved with Milan needing to reach 15 million euros.
