The former Milan full-back currently plays in Saudi Arabia for Al Hilal, coached by Simone Inzaghi, the Frenchman’s former rival at Inter. According to Carlo Pellegatti, the Frenchman has reached a verbal agreement with the Bianconeri over a move, and that he misses Italy.
‘Absolutely not’
However, Romano has now poured cold water on this idea by suggesting that the former Real Madrid man is not only Juventus-bound, but actually has no real burning desire to leave the Saudi Pro League after just a few months.
“Today, as many of you are asking us about, this discussion between Theo Hernandez and Juventus emerged: from what I’m told, the Frenchman is absolutely not on his way out,” he said (via MilanNews).
“The player leaving Al Hilal is Cancelo, and the Portuguese will leave, there’s no doubt about that. The situation regarding Theo Hernandez is completely opposite: there’s no evidence of any negotiations or negotiations at Juventus today, nor is there any possibility of selling Theo.”
