Man City face battle for €20m-rated defensive starlet with better stats than Mendy – Report

According to a report from Marca, Manchester City will face stiff competition if they want to land promising young defender Theo Hernandez from AC Milan – with European giants Paris-Saint Germain and bitter rivals Manchester United also in the hunt for a left-back.

Hernandez, who joined Milan from Real Madrid last summer to the tune of €20 million (£17.5 million), has started 21 Serie A games for the Rossoneri this campaign – scoring five goals and two assists from the full-back positions.

However, despite his impressive numbers going forward, Milan are reportedly willing to listen to any offers that may come in for the 22-year-old – with City, United and PSG all in the market for a new left-back as per this report.
