Club bid farewell to former PL winning United star who have a bond that “will last forever”

Former Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez has suffered his latest career setback. United career The striker know as Chicharito joined the Red Devils from Mexican side Guadalajara in 2010. He took to English football like a duck to water, scoring 20 times during his first season in which United were crowned league champions. The Mexican would score a total of 59 goals in 157 matches for United, before leaving the club in 2015. Hernandez moved to Real Madrid on loan in 2014 before spending time at Bayer Leverkusen, West Ham United and Sevilla. After his career in Europe ended, he played four seasons for LA Galaxy in the United States before returning to his native Mexico in 2023. Nonetheless, he could not return to the goalscoring ways that defined the majority of his career, only finding the net three times in 31 matches over two seasons. Release Therefore, it probably comes as little surprise that the Mexican side have decided to release the now 37-year-old forward. Posting on the club’s official Instagram site they commented, “Club Deportivo Guadalajara announces that Javier Hernández Balcázar is ending his second spell as a Chivas player.” The Mexican side went on to state, “the bond between Chicharito and the club he loves, which trained him and helped him become a legend in Mexican football, will last forever.” The statement continued, “Javier is undoubtedly one of the greatest figures in Mexican football. With the Rebaño, he won the 2006 Apertura League title and the 2010 Bicentennial individual scoring title, before embarking on an international career that led him to success at several of Europe’s most important clubs.” The club also thanked him for his “dedication” and “passion” during his second spell at the club. Controversy The former United star found himself in hot water earlier this year after he made sexist comments online, which he later apologised for. His actions resulted in a fine and criticism from the country’s president.
