Lucas Hernández could be the protagonist of one of the most surprising moves in the upcoming summer transfer market. The French defender is seriously considering leaving Paris Saint-Germain after a season where he has lost prominence and doesn't have the full confidence of Luis Enrique. Despite arriving with a star status, injuries and inconsistent performances have prevented Lucas from establishing himself as a key figure in the Parisian defense.
In this scenario, the 2018 World Cup champion would welcome a return to Atlético Madrid, the club where he performed best throughout his career. Under Diego Simeone's leadership, he achieved his peak consistency, won the Europa League, and solidified himself as one of the most promising defenders in European football before moving to Bayern Munich.
He wants to regain control of his sporting career
Neither in Germany nor in Paris has he managed to regain that level, largely due to injuries. Now, at 29 years old, Lucas believes the Wanda Metropolitano could be the ideal stage to rejuvenate his career. Meanwhile, Atlético would also see his return in a positive light, although they are unwilling to pay any transfer fee. The operation would only be considered if the player terminates his contract with PSG.
It remains to be seen whether Lucas Hernández will make that decision and if the red and white club will open its doors for a reunion that many fans are already beginning to envision. It doesn't seem easy since the mattress team would only bring him back if they don't have to pay anything to PSG.
