Theo Hernandez is reportedly keen on rejoining Real Madrid from Serie A club AC Milan in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Spanish outlet SPORT, Theo Hernandez is keeping tabs on the links between Real Madrid and Alphonso Davies. The 26-year-old AC Milan full-back is interested in rejoining Los Blancos in the summer transfer window and hopes to become an option for his former club.
The Theo Hernandez renaissance story
Theo Hernandez has been one of the best players in Serie A since joining AC Milan from Real Madrid in July 2019. The Frenchman was a failed project for Los Blancos after they signed him from local rivals Atletico Madrid. However, he has gone from strength to strength at San Siro in the last half a decade.
Hernandez has seen his market value soar in the last five years, rising from €18 million in 2019 to €60 million. The 26-year-old has turned out 213 times thus far for Los Blancos, chipping in with 29 goals and 39 assists. Meanwhile, the player has won the Serie A title with the Rossoneri.
However, widespread reports have claimed that Theo Hernandez’s spell with AC Milan will end in the summer transfer window. The French international is the subject of interest from Bayern Munich. However, he wants to return to Real Madrid as he feels he has unfinished business at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Dream Real Madrid return on the horizon?
Real Madrid might delve into the market for a left-back in the summer transfer window, with Alphonso Davies being the top target. However, talks to sign the Bayern Munich star have stalled, and a move might not see the light of day. So, Theo Hernandez might fancy his prospects of returning to Real Madrid.
Recent reports have claimed that the French international is an alternative to Alphonso Davies. However, it is unclear if the left-back spot remains a priority position for Real Madrid to reinforce in the summer transfer window.
If the Merengues decide to sign a left-back, Hernandez might be the ideal alternative to Davies. However, it will be interesting to see if a dream return to Real Madrid is on the cards for the 26-year-old Serie A winner.
