Theo Hernandez wants to win the World Cup for France. And for his big brother
Lucas Hernandez was in tears when he ruptured the ACL in his right knee early in France's 4-1 win against Australia last week. His brother Theo replaced him at left back in a straight swap, even though they are different styles of players.
“His injury was very bad news for us. It's not easy for him, either, because it's also a really long injury,” said the 25-year-old Theo, who is one year younger than his brother.
“I've been talking with him on the phone every day since he left Qatar. I want to play in every match here because I want to bring the trophy back for him.”
The younger Hernandez, who plays for Italian champion AC Milan, is more attack-minded than his brother and sometimes seems more like a winger than a defender.
