Lucas Hernandez is reportedly leaving Bayern Munich for Paris Saint-Germain, though nothing is set in stone just yet.

Earlier this month, Hernandez looked set to be ready to sign a contract extension with Bayern Munich, but he seems to have had a change of heart since the end of the Bundesliga season.

They also report that there’s yet to have been an official offer submitted to Bayern from PSG for Hernandez, but a final decision on what his future has in store is still imminent.
