ACMilan managers are aware that they have one of the best left-backs in the world, if not the best right now. Theo Hernandez, recent Nations League winner after icredible performances with France, is naturally attracting interest of the biggest European clubs.
Paolo Maldini was able to snatch the then-Real Madrid outcast for a fee of 20 million euros and now he is worth at least triple that.
According to sources at Calciomercarto.com, Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are trying to find an agreement with Theo's entourage for a contract renewal until June 2026.
For now, the former Real Madrid defender earns 1.5 million euros net plus bonuses per year. Compared to his performances, it is a low figure. The club directors are aware of this fact and are ready to reward their star with a bigger salary. The first proposal is around 3 million euros net per season plus bonuses. However, there will probably be more effort to reach an agreement.
Theo Hernandez can sign a renewal with a salary set at 4 million euros, reports the source. The atmosphere is good and talks are well underway. AC Milan are protecting their interests by extending their key players contract in order to keep away temptations from other clubs such as Paris-Saint Germain and Manchester City.
