It has been reported that Premier League trio Newcastle, Everton and Tottenham want to sign Emerson from Spanish giants Barcelona in the summer transfer window.
Borussia Dortmund are also claimed to be looking at the right-back, who is on loan at Real Betis at the moment.
Barcelona had initially planned to keep the youngster on loan at Betis until the summer of 2021, but interest from clubs have persuaded them to change their stance, and they are now ready to cash in on the 21-year-old, according to the report.
With Betis owning 50% of the rights of Emerson despite having him on loan from Barcelona, the Catalan outfit will have to buy him for a price of €9 million (£8.16 million) before they can sell him on, adds the report.
Stats
According to WhoScored, Emerson has made 29 appearances La Liga for Betis so far this season, scoring three goals and providing five assists in the process.
