Milan weighing Hernandez sale as Al Nassr table mega offer | OneFootball

Theo Hernandez has become a central figure in the early transfer market discourse, with reports linking the AC Milan left-back to a possible move to Al Nassr. The Saudi club is said to be preparing a substantial contract proposal, reportedly in the region of €18 million net per season. There is also talk of Al Hilal entering the fray, adding another layer to the developing situation and potentially driving up both the transfer fee and the urgency for a resolution.

Milan’s valuation of Hernandez hovers between €30 million and €40 million, though some sources suggest figures as low as €25 million have been discussed. With his contract at Milan set to expire in June 2026, the Italian club faces a decision on whether to cash in now or risk greater uncertainty as his deal winds down. Recent reports suggest that Milan’s relationship with Hernandez has grown complicated since Paolo Maldini’s departure. Incidents involving disciplinary matters—such as a cooling break episode and a penalty dispute—have only added to the tension, prompting speculation about his willingness to continue at San Siro.

On the pitch, Hernandez remains a key figure for Milan. Across the 2024/25 Serie A season, he registered 33 appearances, contributed four goals, and provided three assists, underlining his attacking influence from left-back. In the Champions League, he played 10 matches with an average rating of 6.94, maintaining his position as a reliable, forward-thinking presence on the flank.

For Al Nassr, the potential acquisition would signal intent as they look to reinforce their squad, particularly ahead of domestic and Club World Cup campaigns. The club has the financial backing to offer wages and transfer fees attractive enough to turn heads in Europe. Milan could see the transfer as prudent from a business perspective, given the looming expiration of Hernandez’s contract in 2026.

Despite the speculation, there have been no direct statements from Hernandez or his representatives. Reports suggest the player is considering the offer, but the prospect of leaving European football at this stage of his career remains a topic of debate. The presence of other clubs, particularly domestic rivals Al Hilal, introduces further uncertainty and could prompt a bidding contest in the coming weeks.

For now, interest from Saudi Arabia is concrete, and Milan’s openness to negotiation appears linked to both financial and sporting factors. The next steps will likely depend on Hernandez’s personal ambitions and how aggressively Al Nassr and Al Hilal escalate their pursuit.
