Theo has recovered his best version in Italy. After leaving Real Madrid in the summer of 2019, the speedy footballer from Marseille is a dagger for the band and his leadership catapults Milan day after day. Serie A has named him the best full-back of last season for his fireproofness, which leads him to travel the band with a lot of verve to nurture his teammates with assists.
The goal also accompanies him, as his confidence in striking makes him a threat to rivals. Four goals and the same assists in domestic competition what we have this year are proof of this. Real Madrid paid Atlético 26 million euros in 2017 for their signing and they never got any performance from them on the field. Milan paid 21.5 'kilos' for their services and this is where they are showing their best face, as they already did in Vitoria and San Sebastián.
The joy of the French is palpable on a day-to-day basis. He is grateful to the club, and This is how he has expressed it when he has been named best full-back in the Italian league 2019-20: “Happy to be named best winger in Serie A. Thank you very much to my teammates and coach for helping me achieve it.” The powerful footballer managed to score 6 goals and distribute 5 assists last year, more than remarkable figures for a profile that starts from so far back on the field.
Theo has become one of Milan's leaders, a heavyweight in the locker room for his performance and character. So much so that it has become the example to follow even for colleagues. Kalulu, Milan's right-back, looks to the former Real Madrid player as an example to grow. “Personally, I am impressed. Watching him play from the bench in any game is something that shocks you. When he grabs the ball, turns and you see him run, you have the impression of being in front of a train. That's what we tell him in the dressing room, “says the Frenchman.
Your progression is important, despite the fact that Deschamps still does not call him for the senior team. Theo has not found that opportunity, the coach has not considered rewarding his evolution and in Italy it surprises. Meanwhile, he continues to steer the left lane of a team that smiled back.
