Pictures of Theo Hernández together with his idol Paolo Maldini have made the rounds on the web, quickly going viral. The French full-back and the former Rossoneri manager met to have a long coffee. Inevitably, much has been talked and written about in recent hours.
Nostalgic people went back a few years, remembering a Scudetto in which both were absolute protagonists. Some have thus begun to dream and fantasize about a future still together. At Milan? At the moment it is impossible, but a possible sale of the club would change every scenario.
Today, clearly, they are just speculation. It is difficult for anyone to really know what the two said to each other, but the more observant have pointed out that Theo Hernández has changed the photo on his Instagram profile, putting up an image from a few years ago, most likely from the year of the Scudetto (certainly there was Maldini at Milan at that time).

That the player himself is nostalgic for a time that is gone is quite understandable, but to get it back all he has to do is roll up his sleeves and start really fighting for the shirt. By now everyone is giving Theo Hernández away from Milan from next summer.
To state this with certainty, however, seems really wrong. After all, the Frenchman has already turned down several proposals in the past. He did so even in the winter by saying no to Como. It cannot be ruled out, therefore, that the fullback decides to stay until his contract expires. Theo Hernández has always expressed his desire to continue playing for Milan, but at the moment the conditions are not there.
The footballer will therefore have to work to ensure that the ground around him becomes fertile again. Time is not up, as many would have us believe, and a renewal is still possible. In the next matches, however, we need to see a different Theo Hernández: already against Lecce the signs were more than positive.
Sergio Conceicao can help him with the three-man defense, with which he has more opportunities to push forward, thinking less about the defensive phase. Saturday so the test was more than good. Who knows, the meeting with Maldini may not represent the turning point totally. Real Milan fans really believe that.
