Emerson, who has spent the last 3 and a half seasons at Chelsea, has dropped to third in the pecking order of left backs behind Ben Chilwell and Marcos Alonso.
Emerson has played four times for Italy, including the final against England, during its victorious Euro 2020 campaign, and even came off the bench in Chelsea's 3-0 win over Crystal Palace in its Premier League opener last week.
