Rumours about Emerson Royal and a move away from AC Milan have heated up massively this afternoon, and Galatasaray are confident about securing a deal.

Had you told Milan that Emerson would be departing after six months in the summer, frustrations about the signing would only grow further. The move was initially frowned upon, but since then, Emerson has only been viewed as a mistake.

With Davide Calabria struggling with injuries and fitness, Emerson has been thrown into a starting role with no real competition for his spot. Unfortunately, he has not risen with this pressure, instead, he has often shown why the position still looks weak.

Because of this, a signing at right-back is essential and Kyle Walker looks set to arrive in Milano shortly, with an official bid expected this evening. To free up space for the Englishman, Emerson could be moved on as a result.

Galatasaray have shown interest, and it was reported earlier today that they were readying themselves for a move. As the day has progressed, it seems a loan is more likely and Daniele Longo has provided an update on his X account.

The journalist states that negotiations for a ‘paid loan’ are going ahead and the Turkish club would have an option to buy. Furthermore, Gala are ‘confident of closing’ a deal, so it is a deal which could finalise quickly.

  1. Well that’s almost a best-case scenario, someone is actually willing to pay for Emerson, hard to believe. Everyone knew he was terrible when we bought him. I still remember the gleeful disbelief from Spurs fans that we were willing to buy him.

      You are cracking me up…😅😅🤣🤣

      1. Yes, I was reading their comments, even articles on Spurs fan sites like this one and they were laughing at Milan. I just don’t understand what kind of scouting team does Milan have when they couldn’t watch 3 games of this guy and see that he doesn’t even know how to run properly. As a RB. Let’s not even talk about him with the ball at his feet…

  2. Goodbye Emmersob 👋
    Can’t believe this guy actually play football professionally and also earn a lot of money.
    The non-League players are by far better than this guy.

    1. He’s like the opposite of Julius Caesar..

      He came, he saw nothing, he got conquered many times by opposition wingers.

      Wonder what fee we’ve conned Galatasaray into paying? Turkish league is more his level. Let’s throw in Origi too 😀

  3. Never… he was bought to replace calabria… He is going to stay and become a Diety like Origi and Ballo toure, delivering despair and pain to Milan fans 😂

    1. Ibrahimovic: “Never. Emerson bench the current captain, he deserves to be the new captain, he is our royal righ back.”

  4. It will only be a loan deal? That means he will be a problem in summer. After they see him play, they certainly aren’t going to buy him.
