It is well known the interest Paris Saint-Germain has in Lionel Messi. Whether with Thomas Tuchel or Mauricio Pochettino, the French club wants the best player ever to leave FC Barcelona to join them. But the Argentinian is not the only one, PSG want someone else from the Catalan side.

He is a Brazilian right back that has not made his oficial debut with FC Barcelona yet, being right now behind Sergiño Dest in Ronald Koeman's consideration. He is still considered the new Cafu and, playing on loan at another La Liga team, he is the one Mauricio Pochettino wants to replace Alessandro Florenzi.

According to Sport, this player is Emerson Royal, who currently plays for Real Betis. The Cules have tried once of offering him in the negotiations to bring Neymar back, but nothing happened. Emerson is 21 years old and caught the attention of many top European teams, and FC Barcelona need some money.

The Brazilian impressed in the 14 matches he featured in this season and it is said he is worth around 20 million euro. To avoid a compensation to his current club, FC Barcelona will try to delay the transfer until the summer, but Pochettino will insist for it to happen this month.
