AC Milan defender Theo Hernandez has linked his move away from the club at the end of the season, and Manchester United are interested in signing him.
According to TMW, Chelsea is also in the race, but Manchester United is likely to move for the players. The report argues that when it comes to French defenders, the interests of Premier League clubs, particularly Manchester United, should be paid attention to the interests of French defenders.
The players are also linked to Manchester City.
Ask Price Set
Milan has a asking price of 40 million euros for the defender, and Manchester United certainly has the financial resources to get the deal done. They can use more depth with defensive units, and the 27-year-old will be a quality gain. He has the ability and experience to compete at the highest level and could be a very useful acquisition for Manchester United.
Hernandez is at the peak of his strength, and he aims to hit the ground running in the Premier League.
The player is reportedly on the radar of a Saudi club this summer, but he is not planning to leave Europe now. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United will follow up on their interests with official offers to sign players.
Man United could use Theo Hernandez
He’s definitely a quality player. He is highly praised by Italian defensive legend Fabio Cannavalo, who believes it will be difficult to find a player like him.
Manchester United will have to get the opportunity to sign France International this summer. He helps them toned in the back and fight for the trophy next year. They looked defensively vulnerable and it was a disappointing season for them. Improvement of the backline should be a priority during the summer transfer period.
