TOP STORY: City take notice of Theo’s World Cup displays
AC Milan full-back Theo Hernandez continues to attract interest from Manchester City, according to Calciomercato.
Hernandez, 25, has been a key part of France‘s road to the World Cup semifinals despite a poor showing against England in Les Bleus‘ 2-1 quarterfinal win on Saturday. Hernandez was given a tough ride by Bukayo Saka and gave away a penalty with a shove on Mason Mount, but his stock has continued to rise during his time in Qatar.
Theo replaced his brother Lucas in the French national team starting lineup after his 26-year-old sibling was injured against Australia, and has certainly seized his opportunity. He has impressed with a series of assured performances, looking largely solid at the back, but also contributing at the other end with two assists.
Hernandez had previously rebuffed interest from Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, as well as overtures from Paris Saint-Germain, but the two parties remain interested.
The left-back has previously stated that he sees his future in only Milan, but his agent has kept communication open with interested parties.
