Chelsea Transfer News: Emerson Palmieri being eyed by Inter Milan
According to transfer news from reputed journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Inter Milan want Chelsea outcast, Emerson Palmieri. The Serie A champions want a new left-back/wing-back and it is understood that the 26-year-old Italian is who they want.
Emerson has struggled massively to get any sort of game time this season. He has played a staggeringly low number of minutes, with most of them coming in cup competitions. Ben Chilwell has pretty much been Chelsea’s first-choice left-back/wingback.
Chilwell and Marcos Alonso have pretty much shared the duties at left-back, with Emerson being used in a handful of games through the season. His long spells on the bench meant that he barely scraped through to the Italian side for the Euros.
Now, it has been reported that Emerson is being eyed by Inter Milan. The Serie A champions recently underwent a managerial change and appointed Simeone Inzaghi. Nonetheless, they are targeting someone who can bolster the left-back position. It has been said that the club have already contacted Emerson’s representatives as they want to sign him.

Emerson has just one year left on his current deal. This transfer window represents the only chance for Chelsea to make any money off the deal. Clearly, he is not a part of the first-team plans and we should allow him to leave.
