CM: Together as one – Ibrahimovic and Conceicao rally around Theo during ‘most difficult moment’ | OneFootball

Despite Theo Hernandez seemingly heading towards an exit, AC Milan are refusing to hang the Frenchman out to dry, on several levels.

In a time where Milan have often been separated on so many levels, it is a time for the club to come together. This season, there has been blame placed on every department, but the stars have regularly been given the most stick.

After the Champions League elimination this was, again, the case, especially after the mistakes from Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez. However, the club views it as just that – mistakes.

For this reason, Calciomercato.com state that the club want to rally around the players, especially Theo, who is currently experiencing his ‘most difficult moment’. A message which has been relayed by Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sergio Conceicao.

This, presumably, is why the Frenchman will start against Torino tomorrow, to keep that message of unity, rather than dropping him and creating further issues, given the backlash to doing so would result in suggestions of a fallout.

For the Rossoneri, the goal now is to turn things around on the field, and the only way that this can be done is with serenity – which is why Theo was not fined. The Champions League places remain a tangible goal, and the Diavolo want to achieve it together, in what will probably be Hernandez’s last season with the Rossoneri.
