Theo Hernandez’s Agent Arrives for Discussions with AC Milan

According to reports on Monday, the agent of AC Milan left-back Theo Hernandez has flown to Milan to hold talks with the club. This follows Hernandez’s surprising omission from the starting lineup in Sunday’s Serie A match against Genoa, which ended in a 0-0 draw.

Spanish publication Marca and Italian outlet TMW report that Manuel Garcia Quilon has arrived to discuss his client’s future role with the Rossoneri. Hernandez was unexpectedly left on the bench in favor of 19-year-old Alex Jimenez for the Genoa match, and was not brought on as a substitute.

Monday’s reports suggest that Milan currently has no immediate plans to offer Hernandez a contract extension, despite interest from several top European clubs. Discussions about a new deal have reportedly been ongoing intermittently since March, but little progress has been made in recent months.

Hernandez, one of Milan’s highest-paid players and key performers in recent seasons, has struggled to maintain his usual high standards during the 2024-25 campaign. This dip in form likely contributed to his being dropped for Sunday’s match against Genoa.

The situation highlights potential uncertainty surrounding Hernandez’s long-term future at AC Milan. The outcome of the agent’s discussions with the club could provide clarity on the player’s role and status moving forward.
