Tottenham appear more than happy to sell right-back, Emerson Royal, this summer. It has now reported that Borussia Dortmund have entered the running for the defender, alongside AC Milan who have recently had a bid rejected.
Emerson Royal seems to have his eye on the Tottenham exit door with the club also willing to sanction a sale.
The Brazilian publicly expressed his desire for consistent playing time by explaining to Globo ‘I’m not a player to sit on the bench. I want to play. If not here, I understand. But let me go to a place where I play’.
Fabrizio Romano revealed on the 7th of July that Emerson has already started to push along his move to AC Milan after agreeing to a five-year deal, leaving the Italian side to thrash out a deal with Tottenham.
AC Milan did eventually send their bid to Tottenham, however as announced by Alasdair Gold, Spurs have rebuffed the bid with it not reaching their valuation of €20 million for the ex-Barcelona defender.
A new update from Premier League Brasil has unveiled that German giants, Borussia Dortmund, have now sent a proposal of their own for Emerson, valued at around Tottenham’s valuation, €20 million.
The report suggests that a deal can now be agreed between Borussia Dortmund and Tottenham as their bid matches their asking price, unlike AC Milan’s offer.
However, Premier League Brasil does explain that Emerson, who had agreed to a five-year deal with AC Milan, hasn’t decided on the proposal offered by Borussia Dortmund yet.
Spurs Web opinion
It can be assumed that Emerson’s decision on Dortmund’s rumoured proposal will be how much game time the Bundesliga side can ensure the player after the Brazilian expressed his desire to play often should he depart Spurs this summer.
Another club’s interest is beneficial to Tottenham nonetheless with more interest driving up the player’s value and potentially ensuing a bidding war for a player Spurs have deemed dispensable.
