Theo Hernandez Leaves Milan

After rumours and expectations Theo Hernandez leaves Milan for the Saudi Arabian riches of Al Hilal. The French left back was a major part of the disappointing 2024-2025 season and many expected his exit. The drop off in his play was apparent on several occasions during the past season. The wait was reportedly due to his preference to stay in Europe. Some players would finally succumb to the riches on offer in the Saudi league and accept a move. This materialized for Theo.

Milan, known for not being the best sellers, managed to receive €25 million for Theo. A player one year away from being a Bosman free agent often, not always, sees his transfer value drop quickly and one can consider the €25 million a decent amount for a player that seemed inclined to leave anyway.

As reported his salary at Al Hilal is 22 million per year until 2028, with an option for a one year extension.
