Brazilian defender Emerson Royal spent one season at AC Milan. However, he failed to convince the club's leadership with his performance and ultimately had to return to Brazil.
“Milan invited me to join their team. I met Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who presented me with the team's project, and I liked it. But as soon as I settled in Italy, I felt strange.
Every single thing I did was excessively talked about, as if I were as famous as Cristiano Ronaldo! Moreover, the discussions were mostly negative and critical.
I realized that I had to double my effort to gain acceptance in Italy. But living with that situation was tough, and I decided to leave on my own,” Emerson said in an interview with pianetamilan.it.
Today, Emerson Royal plays for Flamengo.
