Real Madrid's start to the season has not been great and it is quite clear that they need to strengthen in certain areas if they are to remain competitive with some of Europe's best. One such area is their defence. Los Blancos need to bring in reinforcements at centre-back as well as both full-back positions.
Alphonso Davies has been linked with a move to Real Madrid for a long time. But the Bayern Munich ace does not seem to be the only left-back that the club are keeping an eye on.
As reported by calciomercato, Theo Hernandez continues to be highly regarded in Europe. Manchester United is one of the clubs that is considering adding a player to that area of the pitch for next season while the other option to take into consideration is the one that leads to a return to Real Madrid.
It is believed that AC Milan would look for a transfer fee of at least €50 million to part ways with Hernandez. Let's see if Real Madrid make a move for their former player.
€50m defender linked with blockbuster Real Madrid return
Hernandez has been considered one of the best left-backs in European football for some time now. His recent form has raised some eyebrows though.
He remains an important part of this AC Milan team though. In fact, he captained them when they won against Real Madrid away at Santiago Bernabeu in the Champions League earlier this season.
Hernandez's contract with AC Milan is believed to run out in the summer of 2026. Real Madrid have two options at left-back right now. Ferland Mendy has struggled to match his usual levels while Fran Garcia has never convinced since his return last season. Eduardo Camavinga is someone capable of filling in that position as well.
