AC Milan technical director, Paolo Maldini confirms that Theo Hernandez' renewal is very close and imminent. Here are his words to DAZN:
"We are going to meet his agent in the next few days, but only a few details are missing. The agreement is almost reached."
On signing a defender:
"In defense I don't know, Romangoli and Calabria are back. The emergency is ending and Tomori will be there in about twenty days. Then putting a new player in and make him settle in and make him have an important impact, taking away space even for those who have done well like Gabbia and Kalulu... Then if it had been possible to make an important player for the next 6-7-8 years it would have been different, but unfortunately it was not possible."
On the current league standings:
"For us it is an important match, we want to hold on to Inter and we want to keep Juve at a distance, we would be more confident for our qualification in the Champions League."
