Émerson Ferreira da Rosa (born April 4, 1976, in Pelotas), simply known as Émerson, is a Brazilian football midfielder who currently plays for Italian Serie A club A.C. Milan. His nickname is "The Puma" for his feline movements in midfield.
Club
After playing for Bayer Leverkusen, Émerson signed with AS Roma, winning the Scudetto and the Italian Super Cup in 2001. After two seasons with Juventus FC with coach Fabio Capello, he moved to Real Madrid in July 19, 2006, again following Capello. However, due to the declining relationship between Émerson and Capello and Émerson's poor performances for Real Madrid the player, in January 2007, declared his desire to return to Juventus, rumoured to be willing to take a pay cut.[*] However, by May, his performances had picked up considerably, along with a great improvement in the team's results, and on 12 May 2007 he declared his intention to remain with Real.[2] But in his conversation with the radio program "El Larguero", the president of Real Madrid, Ramon Calderon, said that Émerson would leave Real Madrid this summer along with the Italian striker Antonio Cassano for technical reasons.[3]
On August 21, 2007, Milan officially confirmed the transfer of the Brazilian midfielder.[4][5] He made his official debut in Milan's 3-1 UEFA Super Cup victory over Sevilla F.C. on August 31.
National football team
Émerson was a late replacement for Romário at the 1998 World Cup, and then suffered a reversal four years later. The original captain of Brazil's 2002 World Cup team, Émerson dislocated his shoulder in training before the first game;[6] Cafu replaced him as captain and Brazil went on to win the cup.
