PSG have been named among the three clubs looking to sign AC Milan's €60m-rated ace. The other interested clubs are Bayern Munich and Manchester City.

The future of Theo Hernandez at AC Milan appears to hanging in the balance due to his high salary demands. The French left-back, a key figure in the Rossoneri's setup, is reportedly seeking a substantial increase, asking for around 8 million euros per season to renew his contract.

However, the Italian club seems unwilling to meet these conditions, creating a climate of uncertainty regarding his continuation at the club, especially with his current deal running until 2026.

With tensions rising, a departure now seems imminent. This situation has attracted interest from several top-tier teams keen on securing his services in the upcoming summer transfer window, according to reports from Fichajes.

Among the clubs closely monitoring the situation are Bayern Munich, who view Hernandez as the ideal replacement for Alphonso Davies.

The Canadian international is set to leave the club, likely joining Real Madrid when his contract expires this summer. Manager Vincent Kompany sees Hernandez as a marquee signing for the left flank, perfectly fitting the team’s style.

Manchester City are also in the market for a top-class left-back for next season, and the prospect of signing Hernandez has captured the attention of the club’s hierarchy. With a reasonable asking price, he could seamlessly integrate into Pep Guardiola's tactical plans.

Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain have long held an interest in Hernandez, who has expressed a willingness to join the French giants.

Despite having Nuno Mendes on the left side, Theo would be an excellent addition to bolster PSG's defensive line.

This move would make sense, especially considering that Nuno's usual backup is Lucas Beraldo, who is primarily a central defender rather than a natural left-back.

The other option for the left-back position is Lucas Hernandez, Theo's brother, but he is currently injured and is not expected to return until 2025.

Furthermore, Lucas tends to perform better in a central role, making Theo an even more attractive prospect for PSG as they look to strengthen their options on the left flank.
