In the Premier League, They're Already Making a Move for Him, 35 Million to Say Goodbye to Real Madrid

Several teams in England have made this player a priority for the summer of 2025.

Not Only Real Madrid Is Looking in the Transfer Market for the ideal footballers to continue the generational change in its squad. Other clubs in the European football elite, especially in the Premier League, have also started their respective campaigns to secure the right signings to improve their teams' competitiveness.

One of the Most Notable, especially due to the poor sporting dynamics recorded this season, is Manchester City. Despite the investment of over 200 million euros during the winter market, Pep Guardiola hasn't avoided elimination in the Champions League round of 16. Furthermore, the fight for victory in the Premier League seems practically lost, and only a "miracle" could turn the situation around.

It Hasn't Been the Best Season for the Sky Blue Team, which increasingly looks more to the future than to the present in which it is inevitably embedded. With the aim of returning stronger for the next season, the top management at Etihad Stadium is planning several signings at the direct suggestion of the Catalan coach. One of the most anticipated would be the arrival of a left-back, because the current occupant of that position is a natural center-back.

The Placement of Josko Gvardiol in That Position in the Cityzen Defense would be short-lived if Manchester City manages to secure the signing of Theo Hernández. The AC Milan left-back, footballingly trained at La Fábrica, has become a reference in the European football elite, attracting the attention of several clubs. He even prompted tentative approaches regarding his renewal, approaches completely ruled out due to the tense atmosphere between the sports management and the player's entourage.

It's a Possibility

Precisely that would be one of the Most Notable Conditions of the Transfer. Because Theo Hernández currently has a market value of 50 million euros, an amount that Manchester City wouldn't need to pay. The latest information on the matter places the transfer at around 35 million euros, a considerably reduced figure due to the particular situation the French defender is going through.

In addition to the pre-existing tension with the AC Milan bosses, the '23' Rossoneri doesn't hide that he wants to change teams and is waiting for the right moment to leave Italy. That approach could be led by Manchester City... as long as Real Madrid decides not to intervene in the signing with its own offer.

After the failure to sign Alphonso Davies as a free agent, Juni Calafat's scouts continue to search for a left-back in the elite transfer market. Theo Hernández, thanks to his versatile profile in attack and defense, as well as his Madridist past, could be the number one option to replace Ferland Mendy. The competition from Manchester City in this operation would increase the price of a player who wants to leave as soon as possible from the San Siro locker room.

Real Madrid will remain aware of Theo Hernández's movements for the rest of the season, in addition to "monitoring" any approach from Manchester City regarding their former player. The white executives led by Florentino Pérez, as they attempted in the "Davies case," won't miss a market opportunity if it fits into future sports planning.
