Javier Hernandez offers to play for Man Utd for free amid current striker crisis

Former Manchester United striker, Javier Hernandez a.k.a chicharito, is willing to play for free if he ever returns to Old Trafford.

Hernandez’s benevolent gesture comes at the time the club’s new boss, Erik ten Hag searches desperately for a new striker.

Meanwhile, the 34-year-old Mexican forward has been very instrumental to his current club, LA Galaxy, helping them storm clear at the top of the MLS Western Conference.

During his days at Old Trafford, Chicharito netted 59 goals in 157 appearances for the club.

Noting that he would consider a move back to Man United, the Mexican, as quoted by The Mirror, said: “If United came for me then I’d say yes, I’ll play for free. Of course, you know, I’d do that.

“But I also want to be very respectful to my club. I am playing very consistently and in my mind my conviction is all about winning a championship with LA Galaxy.’

“In the future, if things happen then they happen – but in my mind I am 100 percent with LA.”
