Javier Hernandez has once again been linked with a move away from West Ham.
ESPN UK has reported that West Ham striker Javier Hernandez is ready to leave the club this summer.
The Mexican international joined The Hammers from Bayern Leverkusen last summer, but has struggled to break into the starting team at the London Stadium.
The report goes on to say that West Ham are open to idea of listening to offers for the player, as long as they are able to recoup most of the £16 million fee they paid for him.
A proven goalscorer entering the later stages of his career, Hernandez is attracting interest from the Major Soccer League, China and Turkey, but he would be a perfect fit for Sam Allardyce’s Everton.
Despite acquiring the services of striker Cenk Tosun in January, Everton still remain light in attack. Hernandez would surely slot straight into The Toffee’s starting team, either playing alongside Tosun or spearheading a formidable front three with Theo Walcott and Gylfi Sigurdsson.
Hernandez has struggled for game time at West Ham this season, but has still managed bag eight goals in the Premier League. Everton would benefit greatly from such a clinical finisher, and given more minutes, he is only likely to improve on that tally.
The 29-year-old has scored many of his goals this season after coming off the bench, proving time and time again why he is one of the best finishers the league has ever seen.
He would even be an attractive prospect for the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, but Everton would be able to offer him the game time he desires, while still ensuring he plays at a competitive level.
