Al-Hilal's recent participation in the Club World Cup has come to an end, allowing Hernández to finalize his move. The team was eliminated by Fluminense over the weekend, paving the way for the French international to join his new team.

Reports suggest that Hernández was also under consideration by Atlético Madrid, but negotiations did not proceed. It is now confirmed that he will be joining Al-Hilal in the coming days.

AC Milan will receive the agreed-upon €25m transfer fee, which is a significant amount for the Italian club. Hernández's departure will also mean that he will not be joining the rest of the Milan squad for the start of pre-season, which is due to commence on Monday the 7th of July.

Several other players, including Yacine Adli, Ismael Bennacer, and Devis Vasquez, are also expected to leave the Italian club ahead of summer moves. Their departures will likely be finalized in the coming days as well.

Al-Hilal is set to welcome Hernández to their team, bringing an experienced and skilled player to their roster. This move is expected to strengthen the Saudi Pro League side's defense in the upcoming season.
