AC Milan has reportedly been offered the opportunity to sign Kieran Trippier, but they would much rather buy Emerson Royal than the Newcastle United player, according to AS Roma Live.

Wants to sign Emerson Royal with AC Milan
Many rumours regarding Emerson’s supposed transfer to Milan persist, even if it doesn’t seem like the deal is nearing or finalised just yet.
Gazzetta dello Sport said last week that the Rossoneri are still optimistic that they can finalise a deal for the 25-year-old, who Spurs is surplus to needs.
The article also stated that although the San Siro administration believes a price of about €18 million (£15.2 million) would be sufficient to seal the transfer, Tottenham values the Brazilian at about €20 million (£17 million).

ADDITIONAL SPURS STORIES
According to the report, the Magpies saw an opportunity to move the England star to Milan after his form declined last season and are now prepared to cash in on him.
But, it is said that Paulo Fonseca’s team passed up the opportunity to sign the former Spurs player in order to complete an Emerson trade.

Milan’s primary right-back target seems to be Emerson, but they are evaluating their options and waiting to see whether Spurs will lower their asking price.
If this deal went swiftly over the course of the next week or two, I wouldn’t be shocked.
