Having secured a crucial yet hard-fought victory against Hellas Verona at the Bentegodi, Milan and Paulo Fonseca now face several objectives: maintaining consistency ahead of matches against Roma and the Supercoppa, while also addressing the Theo Hernandez factor.
The AC Milan team must win the clash against Claudio Ranieri's Roma before turning their focus to the Italian Supercoppa, starting with the semifinal against Juventus.
It could very well be the showdown with the Bianconeri that marks the full return of Theo Hernandez.

Fonseca has consistently stated that the situation with the Frenchman is not a punishment but rather a means to facilitate his physical and mental recovery, as he remains a vital player for the team.
Meanwhile, the transfer market is not seen as an escape route, despite interest from clubs like Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
This is underscored by his willingness to renew his contract and continue the journey together.
Now, it’s time for Theo Hernandez to reclaim his starting spot through hard work and sacrifice—a position that, for the moment, belongs unequivocally to Jimenez, as pointed out via Milanpress.it.
