Milan have a price in mind for Theo Hernandez as they hit a roadblock in contract renewal talks with the Bayern Munich target.
The 26-year-old Frenchman has continued to be one of the best players in the Rossoneri squad, proving himself to be one of the strongest left backs in world football. With just over two years left on his contract, the club find themselves in a difficult spot.
After joining the Gunners for £35million in 2022 and immediately impressing, the Ukrainian looked set to be a mainstay at the Emirates for years to come. But a change of tack from Arteta and a persistent calf issue has left him lacking in regular game-time.
Milan do not want to start the new season without resolving the Theo Hernandez situation but have struggled to find common ground with his entourage, who have a lofty salary in mind for a new long-term deal.
Page six of today’s Corriere dello Sport details how Theo Hernandez wants his current salary to be doubled in a new contract with Milan, keen to see his wages rise from €4m net to €8m net per season plus add-ons, a hefty sum for the club.
The Rossoneri are not willing to match that request, so would be willing to let him leave this summer for around €80m. Bayern Munich are seriously interested as they look to find a possible replacement for Alphonso Davies.
