Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing 25-year-old French international Theo Hernandez from AC Milan.
According to a report from Calciomercato, Manchester City are keen on signing 25-year-oldFrench international left-back Theo Hernandez at the end of the season.
The 25-year-old has been exceptional for AC Milan since joining the club, and he could prove to be a quality addition to Pep Guardiola’s defence. The player was linked with a move to Manchester City in the past as well. But he decided to continue at the Italian club and signed a new deal with them.
It seems that Pep Guardiola has not given up on the Frenchman yet, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester City decide to come forward with a concrete offer at the end of the season.
It is no secret that Manchester City need to sign a quality left-back despite signing Sergio Gomez in the summer. And Hernandez would be a sensational acquisition for them. The French international is at the peak of his powers right now and could make an immediate impact at the Premier League club.
Furthermore, a move to the Premier League would allow him to showcase his quality at a higher level. And Hernandez would get to challenge for major trophies every season. Manchester City have had to use players like Joao Cancelo and Nathan Ake as their left-backs from time to time, and they need to bring in a specialist option in that department.
Hernandez has established himself as a key player for club and country, and he is certainly one of the most accomplished left-backs around Europe right now. He was a key player for AC Milan when they won the Scudetto last season. The 25-year-old has been a pivotal figure for France at the 2022 FIFA World Cup as well.
It will be interesting to see if Manchester City can convince AC Milan to sell their key defender at the end of the season. The Premier League champions certainly have no shortage of resources, and they could tempt any player with a lucrative offer. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops over the next few months.
