Inter are interested in Real Betis right back Emerson Royal, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Milano based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.
The report details how the 21-year-old Brazilian is a regular player in the Spanish side’s 3-5-2 formation, playing on the right side in a role similar to that of Italian midfielder Antonio Candreva at Inter. The player has been noted for both his strong attacking and defensive qualities, which has caught the attention of Inter CEO Beppe Marotta.
Emerson has made 24 appearances across all competitions so far this season, for a total of 2145 minutes. In that time, he has scored three goals and provided five assists.
His performances with Real Betis have been notable enough that he earned a call up to the Brazilian national team last November, playing a few minutes against South Korea in a friendly match. Inter are also interested in Chelsea left back Emerson Palmieri.
