Theo Hernandez to Al-Hilal official
A statement on the official website reads as follows: “AC Milan can confirm that Theo Bernard François Hernández has joined Al-Hilal SFC on a permanent basis. The Club would like to thank Theo for these six years together and wishes him all the best for his future personal and professional endeavours.”
Theo Hernandez arrived at Milan from Real Madrid in the 2019 summer transfer window. He would go on to amass 262 appearances across all competitions, with 34 goals and 45 assists to his name.
He was a key part of the side that won the Scudetto in 2021-22 under Stefano Pioli, and then reached the semi-finals of the Champions League the following season.
Theo will be remembered for his lung-busting runs down the left flank and the relationship he had with Rafael Leao, who bid him an emotional farewell on social media earlier this week.
