The match Roma won S.S.C. Napoli 3–0. Roma eventually won the Scudetto and the Italian Super Cup in 2001.

After a prolonged transfer saga, in which Roma wanted to sell him to Real Madrid instead of league rivals Juventus but his will leaned towards the Italian club, he was sold for €12million plus Matteo Brighi, which tagged as € 16 million,[5] following in the footsteps of his former club coach, Fabio Capello. Moreover, additional €4 million was paid to the agents, made Emerson cost €32 million in total.

[edit] Real Madrid

After two seasons with Juventus FC with coach Fabio Capello, he moved to Real Madrid on July 19, 2006, again following Capello, costing Real Madrid €16 million.[6] However, due to the declining relationship between Emerson and Capello and Emerson'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.[7]

By May, his performances had picked up considerably, along with a great improvement in the team's results, and on May 12, 2007 he declared his intention to remain with Real.[8] But in his conversation with the radio program "El Larguero", the president of Real Madrid, Ramon Calderon, said that Emerson would leave Real Madrid this summer along with the Italian striker Antonio Cassano for technical reasons.[9]

On April 21, 2009, he and the club arrived at a mutual consent to terminate his contract because of how out of shape and old he looked for someone who is 32.
