REAL MADRID | SEALS DEFENDER THEO HERNANDEZ

The pearl of Atletico de Madrid, young 18 year old central defender THEO HERNANDEZ, has chosen Real Madrid as his next destination. The player currently on loan to Alaves has grown through all the age groups at Atletico & has exploded this year grabbing the attention of the big Clubs.

Although Atletico de Madrid was reluctant to sell initially, the entry of FC Barcelona & Real Madrid set off a price war that made the departure from Atletico less "painful". Theo Hernandez has forced the situation & has elected Real Madrid over Barça after a nice 36M€ & a 5 year contract offer, while Atletico will get around 30M€ for the transfer.

The player has apparently gone through the medical exam already & the signing will possibly be made official the end of the week or next after both At.Madrid & Real Madrid play the 2º leg of Champions League this Wednesday.

With the signing of Hernandez Real Madrid insures that the departure of defender Pepe will be well covered, while Ramos has a substitute in case of emergency. Plus the future is being set up for a Varane-Hernandez central defence set-up full of youth, speed & skill.
