AC Milan fans should soon be able to celebrate the renewal of Theo Hernandez as the full-back is very close to a full agreement, according to a report.
MilanNews writes that Theo being given the captain’s armband for the first two games of 2022 has proven just how important he is in the eyes of the club and in the meantime he is showing himself to be decisive on the field with two very good performances including a brace against Venezia yesterday.
Directors Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara have been negotiating a contract extension with the Frenchman’s entourage for several weeks and the most significant meeting took place in Madrid ahead of the Champions League game against Atletico.
The offer on the plate is this: an extension until 2027 (current deadline 2024) with a salary that will have a base of at least €4m net per season but that could reach €5m with bonuses. The will of the parties is to continue together as Theo has always shown great attachment to the Rossoneri, and soon the announcement could arrive.
