Bayern Munich Make Strides in Pursuit of Theo Hernandez

1 week ago 11

Bayern Munich are going after Theo Hernandez to replace Alphonso Davies, who might leave in the summer. The contract of the Canadian star expires in 2025. He’ll likely be sold without an extension in the next couple of months. Real Madrid are strongly tracking him, Mundo Deportivo relays (via Mediaset).

The Bavarians would like to find a quality replacement before signing off on the departure of their star left-back and zeroed in on the Milan cornerstone. According to the publication, the parties have reached an agreement in principle on personal terms.

Bayern Munich will have to find common ground with the Rossoneri, whose execs often stated they wanted to keep all their centerpieces this summer, to snap up Theo Hernandez. He’d reunite with his brother Lucas at the German powerhouse.

A few more sides are keen on the Frenchman, such as Manchester United, Chelsea, and Al Hilal. He’d reportedly prefer moving to Bavaria if he were to flee Milan. He’s due for a contract renewal given his current 2026 expiration date.

Our Take on Bayern Munich and Theo Hernandez

They would be one of the top landing spots should he be on his way out. However, there’s a solid chance the rumor is just a power play by his entourage to put pressure on the Rossoneri during the negotiation to prolong his deal. Still, despite their public statements, the threat of a major departure will be present early in the transfer market window.
