Emerson Royal Transfer from Milan to Galatasaray
Milan is contemplating selling Emerson Royal merely six months after his arrival. The club had attempted to transfer him to Galatasaray during the last winter transfer window. Due to his performance falling short of expectations, the club is now considering his departure. The addition of Kyle Walker has further complicated Emerson Royal's position, increasing the likelihood of his exit by next summer. It appears improbable that a club will pay 15 million euros for him, making a loan move more likely, with Turkey being the most probable destination as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Emerson Royal, the Brazilian full-back, suffered a high-grade calf strain during the Champions League on January 22. This injury led to the collapse of his transfer deal with Galatasaray. He is expected to be recoverable by mid-March, with a full return to rotations in the weeks following. With the acquisition of Walker, it is advised to release Emerson and focus on the Englishman, who is the new starting player for Milan.
Emerson Royal, who was purchased in the summer from Tottenham for 15 million euros, was set to transfer to Galatasaray. Milan had agreed to his transfer to the Turkish club about ten days ago. However, an injury during a match against Girona ended his season and the transfer.
