Emerson Royal’s medical appointment has been given a definite date for Milan to attend.
Following the completion of the €15 million deal from Tottenham Hotspur, Emerson Royal is anticipated to arrive in Italy on Sunday and go through his Milan medical on Monday. He will also select a very special shirt number.
It appears that weeks, if not months, of discussions are finally over as the two teams exchanged documents today. The player won’t be arriving at the airport until Sunday, August 11, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, so Rossoneri supporters will have to wait a little longer to greet him.
Since he and the club have previously agreed on personal conditions, he can then have his medical exams on Monday before signing the deal. Emerson Royal selects a unique Milan phone number.
The 25-year-old is rumoured to have selected the Number 22 jersey, which fellow Brazilian Ricky Kaka formerly wore. According to some sources, Milan will ultimately pay a cost of €15 million plus an additional €2 million in performance-related bonuses.
