Mario Hermoso is close to leaving Atletico Madrid on a free transfer at the end of the season, according to some sources.
The Spanish defender, who played in Real Madrid youth categories, could be an excellent transfer opportunity for several teams, including AC Milan. The Rossoneri, in fact, could be looking for a defender to add to their squad.
Alessandro Buongiorno, Maxence Lacroix, and many others are mentioned, but bringing in a player on a free transfer to Milanello could be an interesting move. After his agent's words, here are the latest transfer news on Hermoso.
As reported by calciomercato.com, there is interest in Mario Hermoso from Aston Villa and some Arab clubs. As for Milan, there has been contact with his entourage, but it has not led to the opening of transfer negotiations.
The reason? As relayed via Pianeta Milan, the Rossoneri managers want to invest in a young profile, and the cost, for Serie A, could be too high: there is talk of a request of around 5 million euros net salary per season.
