Given the peripheral importance he has at Chelsea, him moving to Serie A would give him more opportunities to play. With the Euros set to be held next summer, it would surely help his case in being selected for the Italian squad.

Emerson has made 59 appearances for Chelsea across all competitions. During this time, he has scored one goal and assisted five. (h/t Transfermarkt)
