AC Milan have lost right-back Emerson Royal to injury. The Brazilian was forced to leave the pitch just minutes after kickoff in the match against Girona.
Emerson's injury during Milan’s victory over Girona in the Champions League on Wednesday night will likely rule out a potential transfer from San Siro in January.
Details: According to journalist Matteo Moretto, the injury is expected to sideline the 26-year-old for approximately two months.
Emerson had been linked with moves to Galatasaray and Fulham, and Moretto reported that the “Rossoneri” were scheduled to meet with Galatasaray representatives on Thursday to discuss a potential deal. However, the injury makes the Brazilian's transfer in January unlikely.
Recall: Fortunately for Milan, they already have a replacement lined up, as Kyle Walker has arrived in Italy to undergo a medical ahead of his transfer from Manchester City.
