AC Milan has announced that the club's Brazilian forward, Theo Hernandez, is out for "several weeks" with an ankle injury.
Theo Hernandez made his debut for AC Milan in January 2019,Campeonato Brasileiro Direct but he struggled to establish himself as a regular starter during his time at the club. The Brazilian forward suffered an ankle injury in a recent training session and will be out for several weeks.
Hernandez's absence from the team means that AC Milan may have to rely on other forwards such as Rafael Leão and Franck Kessie to step up their game in his absence.
AC Milan manager Stefano Pioli said in a statement that he was disappointed to hear about Theo Hernandez's injury and expressed hope that he would recover quickly.
Theo Hernandez is a highly skilled and experienced forward who has played for major clubs such as Manchester United and Bayern Munich. He has also represented Brazil at international level.
His injury could be a setback for AC Milan, but they will need to find ways to cope without him until he returns to full fitness.
