Theo Hernandez’s contract situation remains a mystery and amid rumours linking him with a departure, the left-back has published a clear message on his Instagram page.
Hernandez was one of Milan’s key players in the 4-0 win against Udinese last night, labelled as the best along with Rafael Leao by the newspapers. However, as his contract will expire in 2026, doubts remain regarding his future with the club.
Just last week, Gazzetta dello Sport stated that the chances of a renewal have ‘effectively disappeared’, with the parties getting nowhere in the renewal talks. Especially in light of yesterday’s game, in which Theo showed what he can do, this is indeed worrying to hear.
On his Instagram page, however, the Frenchman himself sent a clear message via his stories: “Always and anywhere, SempreMilan”. It certainly supports the reports that suggest Hernandez wants to stay at the club, with or without a renewal this summer.
It remains to be seen how the saga will end but it’s clear that losing Hernandez on a free transfer would be a huge disaster. The new management has already criticised past departures in that sense, so now they need to show that they are better at these situations.
