Theo Hernandez Offered to Juventus as Al-Hilal Considers Exit

July 29, 2026Pablo Navarro3 мин

Theo Hernandez's agent has reportedly been exploring opportunities for the French player with several Serie A clubs. Recent information suggests that former Milan director, Ricky Massara, might play a role in facilitating a summer move to Juventus.

Hernandez joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal last summer in a highly lucrative deal, with some reports indicating an annual salary of €20 million. However, it now appears his time in Saudi Arabia could be nearing its end.

As Hernandez approaches his 29th birthday this autumn, he is reportedly keen on a return to European football. Al-Hilal is said to be open to sanctioning his exit this summer, potentially even on a temporary loan basis.

According to reports, Hernandez's agent has presented the French left-back to various Serie A teams, including Juventus and Napoli. There are also claims that Como has been offered the chance to sign Theo Hernandez.

The agent has reportedly held direct discussions with Ricky Massara, who was appointed as Juventus' Chief Football Officer in early July. Massara has a prior working relationship with Hernandez, having served as Milan's sporting director from 2019 to 2023.

However, Juventus is expected to make a concrete move for Theo Hernandez only if Andrea Cambiaso decides to leave the club this summer. Currently, there are no firm offers for Cambiaso, despite reported interest from clubs like Como, Barcelona, and previously Manchester City.

Theo Hernandez Offered to Juventus as Al-Hilal Prepares to Sanction Exit

Reports in Italy indicate that Theo Hernandez's agent has been actively presenting the French defender to various Serie A clubs. The latest updates suggest that former Milan director Ricky Massara could help facilitate a move to Juventus this summer.

Hernandez left Milan last summer to join Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal in a highly lucrative deal, with some reports at the time claiming the Frenchman would receive a €20 million per season salary during his time in Riyadh.

However, according to reports from Tuttosport, Hernandez’s time in Saudi Arabia may already be coming to an end. This is because he will turn 29 this autumn and is said to be keen on the idea of having another opportunity in Europe. Al-Hilal, meanwhile, is reportedly prepared to sanction his exit this summer, even on a temporary loan deal.

Tuttosport claims that Hernandez’s agent, Manuel Garcia Quilon, has offered the French left-back to several Serie A sides, including Juventus and Napoli. Reports elsewhere suggest that Como have also been offered the Theo Hernandez opportunity.

According to updates on Wednesday, Hernandez’s agent has spoken directly to Ricky Massara, who was appointed as Juve’s Chief Football Officer at the beginning of July. Massara knows Hernandez well from his time working as Milan’s sporting director between 2019 and 2023.

However, Tuttosport also adds that Juventus is only likely to make a serious move for Theo Hernandez in the event that Andrea Cambiaso decides to leave the club this summer. As things stand, there have been no concrete offers for the Italian, despite reports of interest from the likes of Como, Barcelona, and previously Manchester City.
