Emerson Palmieri will have a huge role to play for West Ham United this season and beyond.
West Ham signed Emerson Palmieri from Chelsea last summer for around £13 million (Dharmesh Sheth).

Emerson was absolutely brilliant for the Hammers during the final couple of months of the campaign, and David Moyes showed his trust in the Italian by starting him in the Europa Conference League final against Fiorentina last month.
And now I really believe that we will start to see the best of the former Chelsea man on a consistent basis…
Big Emerson Palmieri U-turn means West Ham will have a top-class left wing back this season
After the U-turn performed by the Italy international, I fully expect him to play a key role for us during the upcoming campaign.
Former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel described the 28-year-old as an ‘unbelievable’ player (Independent).
And over the past few months, the West Ham fans are starting to see what Tuchel meant.
Emerson has a real turn of pace – something that we just don’t have down the left hand side when Aaron Cresswell plays.
The Italian is also incredibly gifted from a technical perspective and plays with a real kind of flair that seems to change the dynamic of how we play as a team.
The 28-year-old is now entering the prime years of his career, and I reckon he’s nailed down the left wing-back spot at the London Stadium.
Now it’s up to Emerson Palmieri to prove his real quality to the West Ham fans over the course of an entire Premier League campaign.
