Emerson: Come get me, Milan!
Saturday 21 July, 2007
Emerson has been told he can leave Real Madrid and the Brazilian admits he’s determined to join Milan.
“The four players I am thinking of for my midfield are Fernando Gago, Mahamadou Diarra, Ruben De la Red and Jose Luis Guti,” said new boss Bernd Schuster.
“The club knows that the door is open for Emerson to leave. Fabio Capello requested him and he is perfect for his style of play, but I have other ideas. I hope another figure arrives instead, someone more creative.”
‘Puma’ was brought to Madrid by Capello, who worked with him at both Roma and Juventus, so the future seems to be a return to Italy.
“I am ready to evaluate offers that come my way. Money is not everything in life,” Emerson told ‘Radio Gaucha’ in Brazil.
“Everything is difficult at Real Madrid. I am in the richest club in the world, but there is far more organisation at Milan.
“It all works like clockwork with the Rossoneri, both on and off the field. You never hear controversy, everyone wants to play for Milan.”
The experience in Spain has not left Emerson with a positive view of the Madrid hierarchy, who fired Capello days after winning a seemingly impossible Liga title.
“I paid the price for being one of Capello’s favourite players. I’ve never seen anything like it in my whole career.”
