His start to the season was rather complicated, between personal performances and team results. Now, however, the wind is changing. But let’s go back to those first horror matches: “Theo-Leao is finally back. The first matches – Theo Hernandez himself revealed – we weren’t 100% mentally and physically. Now I’m feeling good which is the most important thing ”.
Numbers
So far, the Rossoneri defender has scored 2 goals (against Venezia and Lecce) and one assist (against Lecce). Overall, Theo equaled Paolo Maldini’s scoring record with Milan, celebrating the score with a post on Instagram: “Victory and 29 goals with Milan: happy to equal my idol!! GO MILAN”. Below the post, Paolo Maldini also responded, complimenting the Frenchman: “Great Theo. The small difference is that it took me 25 years, it took you 5. You are special!”.
Renewal
“I’m very happy here, the people love me and the team loves me and that’s the most important thing.” The words on Friday evening to the microphones of SkySport are not of circumstance. According to the latest rumours, in fact, there is every desire on the part of the parties to sit at the table with Milan to obtain a renewal that allocates the salary to 6-7 million fixed part plus bonuses, far from the 10 million whispered in the past months and in line with Leao’s salaries and Maignan’s (possible) next one.
