Real Madrid’s signing of Theo Hernandez moved a step closer on Monday as the left-back completed an extensive and exhaustive medical, one which he passed without problem.
Currently on loan with Deportivo Alaves, the Atletico Madrid defender is determined to join Los Blancos despite Los Colchoneros’ preference to sell him to Barcelona.
Now, having come through his medical at Madrid’s La Moraleja Sanitas Clinic, the 19-year-old is set to move to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu when Real Madrid deposit his release clause of 24 million euros with the Spanish league and put an end to the long-standing non-aggression pact between the capital city clubs.
Real Madrid’s intention is to officially announce his signing following Alaves’ Copa del Rey final against Barcelona on May 27.
