Official: "Manchester United" sold J. Hernandez

"Manchester United" continues to reduce the number of attacking players and prepares for the arrival of Anthony Martial - Javier Hernandez, sold to Leverkusen's "Bayer". He has signed a contract with the new club until 2018.

Mexican also attracted interest from a number of other teams, including "West Ham", but ultimately decided to move to Germany, where he arrived today after lunch and underwent a medical examination.

The transfer is expected to cost around 9 million pounds sterling.

J. Hernandez moved to Manchester in 2010, but over the past couple of years lost his place in the team. Last season, he spent his time at Real Madrid, but the royal club did not exercise the option to buy the Mexican fully and he returned to Manchester United.

Meanwhile, "Bayer" was the seventh purchase this summer.
