AC Milan are ready to offer Theo Hernandez a pay rise to fend off interest from Leonardo and Paris Saint-Germain, according to a report.
As reported by SportMediaset (via MilanNews), Milan will soon begin negotiations for the adjustment of Theo Hernandez’s contract, as the Frenchman currently earns €1.5m net per season.
Milan are aware of interest from PSG, who have been following the 23-year-old with interest for some time, and would have no problem putting forward a contract offer worth €5m per year in order to sign him.
After the Gianluigi Donnarumma signing, it appears that Leonardo would see no issue with spiting his former club once again, so it is important that directors Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara get the wheels in motion quickly over his pay rise in order to avoid being burned again.
Theo arrived at Milan from Real Madrid back in 2019, and since then he has asserted himself as one of the best attacking full-backs in Europe, racking up 13 goals and 11 assists over his two seasons so far.
