Al Hilal is intensifying its efforts to sign French left-back Theo Hernandez from AC Milan during the exceptional transfers that precede the FIFA Club World Cup.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, who specializes in transfer news, Al Hilal has already contacted Milan to attract Theo Hernandez, who is a primary target for the Saudi team.

Romano pointed out in his report that there is no agreement between Al Hilal and Milan yet, while Theo Hernandez has not given his approval for the deal so far.

According to reports that circulated on Friday, Hernandez may leave Milan after receiving an official offer from Al Hilal, amid a stalemate regarding the renewal of his contract, which expires in June 2026.

The reports indicated that Milan is considering Theo's future and whether he will renew his contract or move to another club, to avoid losing him for free after 12 months.
