Transfer News: Chelsea battle Real Madrid for prospective modest Ben Chilwell replacement

The Blues are allegedly among the clubs keen on a prospective transfer deal for AC Milan left-back Theo Hernandez this summer.

The talented young left-back has intrigued in his time in Serie An after failing to make an impact at Real Madrid, however he’s being connected with a prospective move back to his previous club.

The report also specifies Theo Hernandez is wanted by Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, and it bodes well that the Blues could be thinking about him.

Ivisionsport note that Ben Chilwell could cost as much as £85m, while the report guarantee Theo Hernandez’s asking price is around £45m.

The Frenchman may not be proven Premier League player like Ben Chilwell, but at the same time looks a tremendous talent who could become wildly successful in England whenever given the opportunity.

All things considered, it will be fascinating to check whether Theo Hernandez favors a prospective move back to Madrid as Ivisionsport recommend Zinedine Zidane might want to reconnect with him again.

Real Madrid could do with replacing Marcelo with Theo Hernandez at left-back.
