Theo Hernández to replace Cambiaso

Theo Hernández could be set for a return to Serie A following his spell at AC Milan and his current time at Al Hilal.

The French left-back, born in 1997 and a key figure for France under Didier Deschamps, is currently competing on the international stage while continuing to attract attention from European clubs.

Despite his move to Saudi Arabia, Hernández is reportedly open to returning to a more competitive European environment, with Italy still holding strong appeal after his successful years in Milan.

Juventus and Como keeping a close watch

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus are monitoring the situation closely. The Bianconeri could make a move for Theo Hernández if Andrea Cambiaso leaves the club, as they would need a high-level replacement at left-back.

However, the major obstacle remains financial: Hernández earns around €20 million per season at Al Hilal, a salary that would require a significant reduction to be compatible with Juventus’ wage structure. For now, the situation remains exploratory rather than concrete negotiations.

Como are also in the race, having already tried to sign the player in January 2025 before his Saudi switch, but were rejected at the time.

Now, with the club’s rising ambitions and qualification for European competition next season, they believe they could present a more convincing project.

Their growing status in Italian football could make them a serious outsider in the race if Hernández becomes available.

At this stage, no formal talks have been opened, but interest is expected to intensify depending on the transfer market developments.

Much will also depend on Hernández’s willingness to accept a salary cut to facilitate a return to European football.
