According to the defensive frameworks of the tricolor armada, Théo Hernandez, from the age of 27, took a funny bet. Join in the age of age concerning him the Saudi Pro League, the elite of Saudi football. And this in the ranks of Al-Hilal, fallen champion this year by Al-Ittihad, the team of Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kanté.
Kanté, precisely, that is the example to follow for Hernandez. The tireless midfielder being the only one to have been recalled by Didier Deschamps since he joined the Middle East. Before Euro 2024, the former Chelsea lung had then impressed, before running out of steam during the competition and sinking against Italy, a few months later, as part of the League of Nations (1-3 defeat in the Parc des Princes).
An inexpensive salary necessarily persuasive
For such a young and promising element, the career choice is inevitably challenges. And Didier Deschamps to be particularly attentive to the evolution of his protégés in club, even if it means giving his opinion sometimes on the potential destinations of his players. Stay for Théo Hernandez a real financial opportunity. Of those who only arise once.
