However, approaching his twenty-ninth birthday this autumn, the defender is reportedly eager to reignite his competitive career in Europe.
Al-Hilal is reportedly prepared to sanction his departure during the current transfer window, opening the door to potential loan agreements or permanent transfers back to the top tier of Italian football.
According to updates, agent Manuel Garcia Quilon has approached multiple Serie A clubs regarding the availability of his client, including Juventus, Napoli, and newly ambitious sides like Como.
Discussions reportedly involved a direct conversation with Ricky Massara, who assumed the role of Chief Football Officer at Juventus earlier in July. Massara shares a strong working relationship with Hernandez from their shared years at Milan between 2019 and 2023.
Despite the tempting prospect of securing an elite full-back, Tuttosport indicates that Juventus will only pursue a deal if Andrea Cambiaso departs the club. As of now, no concrete bids have materialized for the Italian international despite reported interest from major European clubs.
