Another major transfer is about to take place in European football. Italian giants AC Milan’s defender Theo Hernandez is close to moving to one of Saudi Arabia’s leading clubs – Al Hilal. This was reported by famous insider Gianluca Di Marzio, citing his sources.
Earlier, it was said that the 27-year-old French footballer had rejected the offer to move to Saudi Arabia. However, according to the latest information, the player has reconsidered his position and is now seriously considering Al Hilal’s offer. Sources say the two clubs have reached a mutual agreement and the transfer is expected to be around 35 million euros.
Theo Hernandez has been playing for Milan since 2019. During his time in Italy, he has become one of the team’s key figures. Only in the past season, the French defender participated in 49 matches, scored 5 goals, and made 6 assists, providing great benefit to his team. His active play, joining the attack, and versatility have played an important role in Milan’s recent successes.
According to Transfermarkt, Theo’s market value is exactly this – 35 million euros. His current contract with the club runs until June 2026, which allows Milan to sell him for a high price.
If this deal goes through, Saudi Arabia will once again attract another prominent European star to its league. Such transfers not only increase the league’s prestige but also boost investment interest in the country’s football sector. In addition, this forces European clubs to act more decisively in the highly competitive open market.
It should be noted that Al Hilal has recruited a number of famous footballers in recent years, and these transfers have drawn international attention. If Hernandez also joins this squad, it will further strengthen the club’s defensive line. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
