Former Chelsea defender, Emerson Palmieri has made history after he helped West Ham to UEFA Conference League victory on Thursday night.
The West Ham left-back starred in last night’s 2-1 win against Fiorentina in the UEFA Conference League.
By so doing, he became the first player in history to win all five major Uefa competitions.
The victory ended the Hammers' 43-year wait for a European trophy.
And it also saw Emerson enter the history books following wins on the continent with Chelsea and Italy.
The first trophy the 28-year-old added to his collection was the Europa League, with Chelsea beating Arsenal 4-1 in the 2019 final.
Emerson followed that up two years later with an incredible double swoop.
First, he helped Chelsea win the Champions League with a 1-0 win against Man City.
And weeks later, Emerson was lifting the European Championship with Italy after a penalty win over England at Wembley.
Later that summer, he scooped the Uefa Super Cup after Chelsea beat Villarreal on penalties.
And Emerson completed his continental sweep last night with the Conference League.
