I'm trying to get the URL link from an element with get_attribute('href') mode. However it returns null, like it didn't have href.

webdriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="__next"]/main/div[3]/div/section[1]/div/a[1]').get_attribute('href');

If I click manually, or use click( ) function, it will get me to the URL of the button, so there is a hyperlink associated to that button.

The html code of the element is that below:

<a data-testid="subcategory-content-with-no-link" >Mastite</a>

How can I get the URL/hyperlink of that button using Selenium?

Edit:

There's no href in any element inside <div> class as can be seen on this printscreen of html code.

The html code that you posted shows that there is not href atteibute associated with that element. See if for example a parent element (possibly div) contains the href attribute instead.

Though on clicking the desired element you will be redirect to the desired URL but the href attribute is absent can be easily acknowledged from the value of the data-testid set as subcategory-content-with-no-link.

However, it needs to be emphasized that the href attribute is obfuscated within the class attribute value:
