What is Emerson Royal's best characteristic?
"His best characteristic is undoubtedly his athleticism. Emerson has an extraordinary ability to cover the field from end to end, both defensively and offensively. He is a player who doesn't tire easily, has excellent stamina, and can maintain a high tempo for the full 90 minutes. Beyond that, his physical strength allows him to dominate in tackles and aerial duels. He is a modern full-back, capable of making a significant contribution both in defense and in building play."
How has his adaptation to AC Milan been?
"Emerson Royal has always shown a great ability to adapt, and Milan is no exception. Milan is a welcoming city, and AC Milan is a club that knows how to make new players feel comfortable."
Emerson Royal has integrated well within the group...
"From what is said, he has integrated well within the group and is working hard to fully understand the tactical demands of Serie A, which is very different from the leagues he has played in before." With the help of his teammates and the technical staff, his adaptation is going well, especially since Emerson has always been a very serious professional. His determination and eagerness to learn are playing a key role in his growth process."
Emerson Royal is growing, and in the last two matches, we've seen improvement...
"Yes, it's true, Emerson Royal is showing clear growth in recent games. He's always been a player with great athletic abilities and a strong physical presence, but lately, he's also improving a lot tactically and in ball control. His ability to cover the flank, both defensively and offensively, is making him an increasingly complete player."
He continued:
"He has responded well to the initial criticism, and today we see a much more confident and mature Emerson, ready to take on greater responsibilities."
