Théo Hernández close to agreeing Al Hilal move | OneFootball

According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, Al Hilal are convinced that Théo Hernández (27) has agreed to join the club following the latest round of talks that have taken place between the AC Milan defender and the Saudi Arabian club within the last 24 hours.

The France international looks set to leave the San Siro this summer, and former Inter manager Simone Inzaghi would like to recruit the left-back as one of his first signings at his new club. Hernandez was linked with a potential move to Atlético Madrid earlier in the window, but talks over a potential deal collapsed and the La Liga club are now targeting a deal to sign Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson.

Ultimatum successful

Al Hilal issued an ultimatum to Hernández to encourage him to join the Saudi Arabian club. The 27-year-old was issued a three-day time scale to sign for the club currently at the FIFA Club World Cup before threatening to move onto other targets.
