Hammer Emerson Palmieri will be the first ever player to win every European club competitions should West Ham win the Uefa Europa Conference League final, meanwhile Italy are in the semi-final of the Uefa Nations League as well.

Emerson already has championship medals for the Champions League,  Europa League and the  UEFA Super Cup which he won while at Chelsea.

In 2019 he assisted Olivier Giroud’s opening goal in a 4–1 win over Arsenal in the 2019 UEFA Europa League Final. On 17 March 2021, Emerson scored his first UEFA Champions League goal for the Blues in a 2–0 home win over Atlético Madrid in the second leg of the Round of 16 tie. Emerson was part of the Chelsea squad which won the 2021 UEFA Champions League Final 1–0 against Manchester City, however did not come off the bench in the match.

In 2021 Emerson was part of the Chelsea squad that beat Villarreal 6-5 in a penalty shootout to lift the Uefa Super Cup. He was an unused subsistute on that day.

He also picked up a medal with Italy for the EUROS.In June 2021, Emerson was included in Italy’s squad for UEFA Euro 2020. On 11 July, Emerson won the European Championship with Italy following a 3–2 penalty shoot-out victory over England at Wembley Stadium in the final, after a 1–1 draw in extra-time; Emerson started the final, and was substituted for Alessandro Florenzi in extra-time

Italy have reached the semi finals of the 2023 UEFA Nations League facing Spain so he has a chance of a medal in that European competition too.

If he picks up two more winners medals he will become the first player to win all six possible European competitions.
