Theo Hernandez seems increasingly close to a farewell. In fact, in the last few hours, the full-back has opened up to Al-Hilal, which is aiming to close the deal within the next 48 hours. Milan is therefore thinking about a replacement, and according to the newspapers, there are essentially 3 names on the Rossoneri’s notebook, as pointed out by MilanPress.it.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the most likely name is Oleksandr Zinchenko: in recent days, Tare has had contacts with the intermediaries who manage the player. Arsenal is asking for around 20 million given the contract expiring in 2026 and last season not spent as a key player. The biggest issue would be the high salary, which will need to be negotiated.
The alternative is Maxim De Cuyper of Club Brugge, for whom a bidding war could arise, as Roma is also interested. La Gazzetta dello Sport also adds the name of Destiny Udogie of Tottenham, who nevertheless seems to be the most complicated option.
