La Liga side Atletico Madrid will pocket 80 million euros (around £68 million) from the deal taking Hernandez to Bayern Munich.
Former Bayern Munich defender Gernot Rohr was delighted that his former club agreed terms with Hernandez, and believes they are sending a message to their Bundesliga rivals with the defender's acquisition.
''It is very good news for for Bayern and Lucas Hernandez,'' said Rohr, who previously coached Bordeaux and OGC Nice, to French radio station Europe 1.
