'Our father didn't love us' – Lucas Hernandez opens up on 'complicated' childhood with brother Theo

The 23-year-old Bayern Munich player has not heard from his father since he was a child and does not know if he is still alive

Bayern Munich defender Lucas Hernandez has opened up about the "complicated" childhood he had with his brother, Theo, after their father left his family.

Lucas, 23, and Theo, 21, have not heard from their father, former Atletico Madrid and Marseille centre-back Jean-Francois Hernandez, since their parents split up over 16 years ago.

Although the pair have followed in his footsteps by becoming professional footballers and spent time at Atletico, the World Cup winners have not tried to track him down.
