Insider: 31 y/o West Ham man’s special occasion could speed up his departure

|

Javier Hernández announced on his Twitter page that his child has been born, coming as the ultimate Fathers’ Day gift.

Like most new fathers Chicharito will want to be as settled as possible, which means he is looking to have his future sorted as quickly as possible, according to ExWHUEmployee.

The insider had previously reported that the West Ham striker was most likely to make a move to Valencia.

Having already released Andy Carroll and sold Lucas Pérez, allowing the Mexican to leave would make Marko Arnautovic and Jordan Hugill the only senior strikers left at West Ham.

This could put extra pressure on the Hammers to ensure they get their targets, with Maxi Gómez being the main one.

Chicharito will be hoping to start more games wherever he moves to next, having only started 14 Premier League matches last campaign- coming on as a substitute 11 times.

Despite that lower number, he still managed a total of seven league goals, which indicates why a side of Valencia’s stature have been linked with a move for the Mexican.

He had turned down the chance to play for the Mexico national team at the CONCACAF Gold Cup, as reported by ESPN.

It could be that sorting out his future quickly played a part in him doing so.
