Theo Hernández is nearing a deal to move to the Middle East.

Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal are in advanced negotiations with AC Milan to sign the 27-year-old half-Spanish French soccer player for a fee close to €30 million ($34.6m), per ESPN sources.

The French international was reportedly under consideration by Atlético Madrid, but negotiations fell through.

Sources told ESPN that all indications are he will continue his career in Saudi Arabia.

A source admitted to ESPN that the full-back had some doubts about a move to Al Hilal, but added that negotiations are progressing well, with some minor details still pending.

He is known for his speed, dribbling, and goal scoring ability.
