Tottenham and AC Milan Stalemate Over Emerson Royal Transfer Fee Spurs Interest in Girona Star

Tottenham’s Hopes for Emerson Royal Transfer to Milan Fade Amid Price Dispute

Tottenham Hotspur’s negotiations with AC Milan over Emerson Royal have stalled following a rejected €15 million offer from the Serie A side, TEAMtalk reveals.

Despite recent reports, there have been no concrete discussions between the clubs. After exiting the race for Aston Villa’s Matty Cash, Milan had considered renewing their interest in Emerson. While Milan remains interested, there have been no new offers to date.

Price Disagreement:

• AC Milan has budgeted a maximum of €20 million, but they have not yet increased their initial offer.
• Tottenham is firm on their €25 million asking price and is unwilling to negotiate.

Although Emerson has agreed on personal terms with Milan for a five-year contract with a salary of €3 million per season, the clubs remain apart on the transfer fee.

Alternative Targets: AC Milan is also exploring other options, including Arnau Martinez from Girona. The 26-year-old right-back, who played 26 games in all competitions last season, has a €20 million release clause. With his contract expiring in 2025, Milan believes they might secure him for slightly less, making him a viable alternative within their budget.

In summary, while AC Milan remains interested in Emerson Royal, the price dispute continues to hinder the transfer, and the Italian club is actively considering other right-back options.
