Theo Hernandez is ready to leave Milan and Europe to join Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia.
The French national team left-back has reached an agreement with the Saudi club for a staggering salary of €25 million net per season, confirming the growing appeal of the Saudi league even for top European players.
According to Foot Mercato, after days of negotiations, an agreement has also been reached between the two clubs. Milan will receive around €30 million for the player’s transfer. Theo had joined the Rossoneri in 2019 from Real Madrid and established himself as one of the best left-backs in the world.
The transfer is expected to become official in the coming hours, as only the final formalities remain. It’s a significant departure for the Rossoneri and a strong signal ahead of the 2026 World Cup: even national team players in their prime are giving in to the allure of Saudi Arabia, as pointed out by those at Milannews.it.
