Theo Hernandez has not been out of the headlines for the past few days since the defeat against Fiorentina and his red card, but now all the talk is regarding a renewal that risks descending into a saga.
As Calciomercato.com recall, the hope was that there would be some concrete movement during the summer regarding the extension of Theo’s contract, because it expires at the end of next season and previous cases have shown how important it is to do things in a timely manner.
They highlight that there have been some mixed messages in terms of the public comments made over the past few months, and the first to speak was Zlatan Ibrahimovic during a press conference during the European Championship.
“Theo is a Milan player. We are lucky, we have three players in the semi-finals of the European Championship. Then we know that he is very happy here, that the family is fine, with the new coach he will have much more space to play the way he likes best. It will go very well, I am not worried,” he said.
This was the period in which – as agent Manuel Garcia Quilon confirmed last night – the club asked the agent if the player was happy to stay in Milan. Zlatan added: “Maignan, Theo and Leao are staying. They have a contract with us, they are happy. We do not have to sell.”
