Theo Hernández, 28, might return to Serie A after one season in Saudi Arabia. He is having a positive campaign with Al Hilal, which is coached by former Inter coach Simone Inzaghi. It is reported that the French full-back has a desire to return to a major European league and is open to playing in the Italian championship again, where he previously played successfully for Milan and became the club's all-time highest-scoring defender by surpassing Paolo Maldini.

The French international has 42 caps and 2 goals for his country, a contract with the Saudi club until 2028, and a current Transfermarkt valuation of €28.00m.
