Liverpool and Newcastle United’s chances of signing Emerson Palmieri have been boosted as Roma are hoping to sell the left-back to a Premier League club to earn more money, it has been claimed.
Emerson has recently returned to action after recovering from a serious knee injury, but he has struggled to hold onto his place in the Giallorossi team this season.
The 23-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Stadio Olimpico, with the Italian giants reportedly ready to listen to offers for the full-back.
Besides Liverpool and Newcastle, Juventus and Inter have also been credited with showing interest in Emerson; the Bianconeri were seemingly arranging a €25m agreement to take the former Santos man to Turin.
But according to Italian daily Corriere della Sera, Roma are keen to sell Emerson to a Premier League club in the hope of making more money from the transfer.
