Theo Hernandez says his first season with AC Milan was the "best of my life".
The fullback made the move last year from Real Madrid.
Theo said, “It was a great first season and in football terms, it was the best year of my life. A dream come true. Football is more tactical and physical here than in Spain, but I adapted well.
“I honestly didn't expect to improve so quickly after two difficult years, but I know my quality and what I can do. I want to become the best full-back in the world and after this year, I realise that I can achieve that.
“I owe it to Maldini, who wanted me here, to my teammates for helping and the coach for guiding me. Maldini gives me advice on how I can improve, he was a real legend. I am well aware I need to do better when defending and also in terms of concentration, which Stefano Pioli reminds me of all the time."
