Theo Hernandez’s farewell to AC Milan is now very close. Fueling the French full-back’s departure from the Rossoneri — which will be finalized in the coming hours — is his great teammate on the left flank, Rafael Leao, who dedicated a long Instagram post to him. This is how the Portuguese number 10 opened his message:
“My brother, my teammate in so many battles. Together we went through many beautiful and difficult moments, but it was a pleasure to share the locker room and the pitch with you, my brother.”

Then came his best wishes for the new chapter, which will take Theo to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia:
“I wish you all the luck in the world in this new phase. I’ll miss you a lot, because over the years you’ve become an important person to me. It wasn’t supposed to end this way, but life is made of challenges. Good luck on this new path — as always, I’ll be rooting for you and for us!”
He closed the message with a signature blending the two surnames that had made Rossoneri fans dream: “THEAO.”
