Real Madrid's Brazilian international midfielder Emerson on Tuesday signed for Italian Serie A giants AC Milan.

The Milan-based club however did not disclose details of the contract.

Emerson said in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport on Saturday that he hoped that the atmosphere in Milan would be "rather more relaxed" and allow him to be "relaxed and happy" instead of staying at a club where he feels "constantly under pressure and always having to justify myself".

Emerson, 31, previously played six seasons in Italy's Serie A, with Roma (2000-2004) and Juventus (2004-2006).
