Tottenham set to earn £20 million from the sale of Ange Postecoglou outcast

Emerson Royal is reportedly closing in on a move to AC Milan, with the transfer potentially valued at up to £20 million, according to Football Insider.

The Brazilian right-back's transfer appears to be nearing its final stages, though a few hurdles remain before the deal is officially sealed.

Emerson Royal, who recently featured as a substitute in Tottenham’s pre-season friendly against Bayern Munich in Seoul, is on the verge of joining the Rossoneri.

The transfer has had its ups and downs, with Milan having a few offers turned down earlier in the summer. But things are moving forward now, and it looks like the two clubs are getting close to a deal.

They’ll likely agree on a starting fee of about £15 million, which could go up to around £20 million with some extra bonuses and performance-related add-ons.

Emerson, who is 25 years old, is eager to make the move to Milan, primarily due to his desire for regular first-team football.

The opportunity to play a significant role at San Siro is a major draw for the right-back, who has been a key figure at Tottenham but is seeking more consistent playing time.

Tottenham Hotspur will be returning to London this week following the conclusion of their pre-season tour of Asia. With the squad heading back to Europe, there is hope that the final details of Emerson's transfer will be ironed out promptly.

The return to London could also signal a shift in focus for Spurs, as they might look to accelerate other transfer activities, both incoming and outgoing.

Despite ongoing speculation and similar reports over the past few days, concrete progress on the transfer has been slow.

Emerson remains part of the Spurs squad for now, but as Tottenham's pre-season activities wind down and they transition back to European operations, it is anticipated that discussions will intensify and potentially wrap up the deal in the coming days.
