Theo Hernandez has not done enough to justify his wage demands this season at AC Milan, but he is reportedly not worried about finances now, instead, he just wants to stay.
The left-back for most of the season has been a level below what Milan know. It is a disappointing reality for everyone in that sense. However, the change to the 3-4-3 saw the dangerous left side return to their best.
In recent years, the Theao combination has been unstoppable, and in Udine, this was the case. The pair combined brilliantly and were a constant danger, with both having a say in the scoreline too, which is always a bonus.
For the Frenchman, though, it seems his best was unveiled, as he was given the luxury of freedom by Sergio Conceicao, and that faith was repaid heavily.
So now, we are once again in a strange position. Where do we go from here?
As Daniele Longo writes, Friday’s performance was as good as we have seen from the left-back, proving he is still the same top player that everyone has cried out for. So, ideas about the future are emerging once again.
For the player, his idea is clear; he wants to stay at Milan, with money not being an issue, and this is why he has already rejected an offer from Saudi Arabia. So, now it is a waiting game once again, but Theo has his mind and heart set on one thing, which his post-match message proved.
