Al-Hilal are increasing the pressure to try and convince Theo Hernandez to join them from AC Milan, according to a report.
The left-back has just one year left on his deal and earlier in the week it was reported that Milan and Al-Hilal had agreed a deal worth around €35m. Theo, though, rejected the idea of a move there, hoping to get a top European club, with Atletico Madrid then entering the scene.

Theo Hernandez: The latest from Sky
According to Sky, there could be ‘an increasingly Italian Al-Hilal’. After the hiring of Simone Inzaghi, there are two more bids expected in the next few hours for two players from the Italian league: Theo and Victor Osimhen.
New contacts are planned to try to get the two players from Napoli and Milan, who at present seem to be unconvinced by the idea of moving to the Saudi Pro League, having set their preference to be a stay in Europe.
Osimhen played last season at Galatasaray, but only on loan from Napoli. The issue for him is that he rejected the first contract offer of €26m net per year, and then did not accept the new offer of €30m either.
Theo ‘would prefer to stay in Europe’ the source confirms, given that Atletico Madrid are also on his trail, having also proposed Nahuel Molina as a counterpart. However, Milan’s desire is to obtain only money from his eventual sale and they hope he says yes to Al-Hilal, therefore.
Come on Theo, please accept.
You can drink as much water on the sidelines as you want during a water break when the rest of the team gathers elsewhere.
Plus you can be as slack as you want when it comes to marking and defensive duties.
Last season reached rock bottom…arrivederci
World Cup next year. Don’t think he will go to Saudi.
3500-4000 minutes every year plus playing long in international tournaments creates fatigue for Theo.
But our management don’t understand that so when he was tired after the Euros they stalled the negotiation with him. Now the fans only see his lack of performance as loss of form completely when he has played 4000 minutes for is and been tired in a team that lacks everything as a team.
Should’ve extended his contract and get a good substitute for him.
But Maldini signed Ballo-Touré as his substitute.
Kerkez
Thats american management for you guys
You cannot forcing player move to saudi club, many player regret moving to there. Lets hope ATM rise their bid to 25m euro + add on 5m euro.
Theo already World Cup, Seri A league, champion leeague winners. Now you are in 28 years old. Logically choices grab the most of money from saudi league. 20m / year. Woww.. once in lifetime bro.. just accept it.
Ayo Theo cepat pindah .. gaji besar menunggu !! Hehe
Theo is not a world cup winner
If he choose al hilal. He can kiss good bye world cup 2026.
Competition in french national is tough.
Please accept….
