The defender spoke about his lack of maturity at the Bernabeu

Milan left-back Theo Hernandez spoke to Onda Cero about why things didn't go so well for him at Real Madrid. The Spanish-French defender said that he lacked maturity.

"This is the best season I've had since I was at Alaves. Neither at Real Madrid nor Real Sociedad could I give my best. I didn't have the chance to show who I am at Madrid. I arrived too young and coming from Atletico is not easy. Now I have matured and that's why I am where I am."

The 22-year-old has played for Milan, Madrid, Atletico, Alaves and Real Sociedad. He wants to stay where he is, in Italy. "In Milan I'm happy and I want to stay here. I have to thank Milan and Paolo Maldini, because they gave me confidence. I'm excited to be a Rossoneri and I decided to stay. I have a four-year deal and I'm good here. The only thing I have in mind is staying at Milan."
