Theo Hernandez 'agrees new Atletico deal'

Teenage centre-back Theo Hernandez has reportedly agreed a new long-term contract with Atletico Madrid.

The 18-year-old, who is the brother of first-team defender Lucas Hernandez, is believed to have attracted interest from the Premier League after his impressive performances for Atletico's youth team.

It is understood that Hernandez's current deal has a £5m release clause, but according to AS, that will be raised to £20.1m when the Frenchman signs on the dotted line.

Hernandez has been linked with a loan move to Alaves for the 2016-17 campaign.
