Mundo Deportivo: Milan star wants Bayern Munich move – the situation

Theo Hernandez has given his approval to the idea of joining Bayern Munich this summer but difficult negotiations with AC Milan beckon, a report claims.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Theo would like to join Bayern but the Bundesliga club face a tricky task in finding an agreement with Milan, even though the Rossoneri ‘know of the player’s intentions to leave’.

Given that Theo has a contract until 2026, Milan want to obtain a substantial figure that could go towards helping rebuild their squad. The full-back has several offers but it is Bayern that he most wants to join.

He would arrive to replace Alphonso Davies, who has not renewed his contract with the Bavarians with one season left before it expires. The Canadian has decided to sign for Real Madrid who now have a stronger negotiating position, but they don’t want to pay more than €50m.

If Davies were to move to the Santiago Bernabéu would mean that Carlo Ancelotti could consider selling Ferland Mendy, who is attracting interest from teams in the Premier League, Serie A and Ligue 1 (PSG above all).

Theo has five goals and 10 assists in 43 games with Milan this season which has attracted clubs such as Manchester United and Chelsea as well as Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia. The former Real Madrid man wants Bayern though, who have his priority.
