Manchester United will reportedly look to sign 27-year-old French international Theo Hernandez from Serie A club AC Milan in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Theo Hernandez is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are scouring the market for a left-back heading into the summer transfer window. So, the AC Milan full-back has emerged as a target, with the Premier League club approaching the Serie A giants over a move for the 36-cap French international.
Theo Hernandez has established himself as one of the best full-backs in Serie A since joining AC Milan from Real Madrid in July 2019. The Frenchman has gone from strength to strength at San Siro in the last half a dozen years, having been a mainstay at the back for the Italian giants.
The 27-year-old has turned out nearly 250 times thus far for AC Milan while chipping in with 33 goals and 44 assists. However, Hernandez faces an uncertain future at San Siro after recently holding showdown talks with the Serie A outfit’s decision-makers about his situation at the club.
The 36-cap French international’s situation has piqued the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe heading into the summer transfer window. Recent reports have linked Hernandez with bigwigs like Manchester City and Real Madrid. Manchester United will aim to beat the competition to his signature in the coming months.
Manchester United’s interest in Theo Hernandez is understandable. While the Red Devils signed Patrick Dorgu in the winter transfer window, the Danish wonderkid can play on both flanks. In addition, Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw face an uncertain future at Old Trafford heading into the summer.
So, Hernandez has emerged as a viable target for Manchester United, with Ruben Amorim an admirer of his talent. The Premier League heavyweights have approached AC Milan over a move for the 27-year-old Frenchman heading into the summer transfer window.
With widespread speculation surrounding Hernandez’s future rising, it will not be surprising to see him moving to the Premier League for a new adventure. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can convince the 36-cap French international to join them, even though they might not offer UEFA Champions League football for the 2024/25 season.
