AC Milan has already identified the player who will take over from Theo Hernández in case the Frenchman leaves the club in the upcoming summer transfer window. Maxim De Cuyper has been chosen to fill the left flank, in a move that reflects the rossoneri's intention to find a long-term replacement in light of the possible departure of their current starting full-back.

The future of Theo Hernández at San Siro is uncertain. His recent performances have raised doubts within the club, especially after his dismissal in the Champions League against Feyenoord, prompting the board to explore alternatives in his position. De Cuyper, 24 years old, has caught attention for his displays at Club Brugge, where he has shown to be an attacking-minded full-back with the ability to contribute both offensively and defensively.

The Belgian footballer is under contract with his current club until 2028, yet several teams are monitoring his situation closely. Besides Milan, Juventus, West Ham, and Arsenal have shown interest in securing his services, potentially leading to a competitive bidding process for his signing in the coming months.

So far this season, De Cuyper has played in 38 matches, scoring one goal and providing six assists, figures that endorse his candidacy as a solid option to strengthen Milan's left flank. His style aligns with the Italian side's playing philosophy, aiming to ensure a smooth transition in case Hernández ends up leaving the team.
