Theo Hernandez Claims to be the Perfect Sign for Chelsea
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Former French footballer Emmanuel Petit has urged Chelsea to sign Theo Hernandez. He claimed that the AC Milan defender would be “perfect” for Thomas Tuchel’s squad.
Theo Hernandez has become one of the best left-backs in Italy. His ability shot far compared to when defending Real Madrid.
The role of the 24-year-old player is very crucial for Milan. So far, he has appeared in 104 matches with a record of 19 goals and 20 assists. His action along the flanks often poses a danger to the opponent’s defense.
Now, Milan wants to extend Theo Hernandez’s contract, which is actually still tied until 2024. Milan is aware that there are many teams who want the French national team player.
According to Emmanuel Petit, now is the time for Hernandez to take a step forward in his career. Leaving Milan and playing in the Premier League with Chelsea is believed to make both parties mutually beneficial.
“A move to Chelsea would definitely be the right transfer for Theo Hernandez. He is a leader at Milan and doesn’t talk much. However, he is a young man who has so much energy and personality in playing football,” Petit said as reported by Metro. .
“Theo Hernandez is a perfect fit for the Premier League. He has a great mentality, leadership and character. But, most importantly, he is a good defender.”
“If it was a manager, I would be happy to bring a player of that type into the team.”
Currently, Chelsea are looking for a new left-back after Ben Chilwell’s long injury. The Blues’ efforts to repatriate players on loan at Olympique Lyon, Emerson Palmieri, met a winding road.
