Tottenham flop Emerson Royal wanted by Atletico Madrid and Roma as Conte looks to offload £26 million defender

ATLETICO Madrid and Roma are interested in Emerson Royal with Conte happy to let the defender leave Spurs.

After only one season at Tottenham, Emerson Royal looks like he is already on his way out of the club with European giants interested.

Emerson Royal was signed for Spurs while Nuno Espirito Santo was in charge. But since then he has been sacked and new manager Antonio Conte has new ideas.

According to , Conte and Spurs are looking at Middlesbrough right back Djed Spence.

This would limit the game time for Emerson, so Spurs will be happy to allow the Brazilian to leave if they complete the signing of Spence.

Emerson has only been at Spurs a year but is already on his way.

Atletico Madrid were interested in buying Emerson from Barcelona last summer before Spurs signed him.

They now have been given a second chance to try and sign the Brazilian after their long standing interest in him.

Mourinho is also looking at the right back at his former club Spurs, as another signing for his quickly improving Roma.

Mourinho may not have coached Emerson at Spurs but clearly sees him as a good defender that could fit in well at Roma.

Conte will be looking to make a few more which could affect whether Emerson is at Spurs next season.
