Emerson to fly out for Chelsea?

By Football Italia staff

Roma defender Emerson Palmieri is reportedly on standby to fly out to London to seal a move to Chelsea.

The clubs are believed to have agreed on a €25m price for the Brazilian, and are now just trying to work out the structure of the deal.

According to calciomercato.com though, both sides of the negotiation expect the talks to be successful, and the player himself is on standby.

Emerson is ready to fly to London in the next 48 hours, but the Chelsea offer does not include Edin Dzeko, whose agent says he wants to stay in Italy.

Once Emerson is sold, the Giallorossi will move for Manchester United’s Matteo Darmian, according to the website.
