Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing former Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez from Bayer Leverkusen in the January transfer window.

Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Javier Hernandez from Bayer Leverkusen in the January transfer window, according to The Mirror.

According to the report, Premier League duo Liverpool and Tottenham are planning moves for the former Manchester United striker.

Spanish club Valencia are also reported to be interested in the 28-year-old Mexico international striker.

The Mirror has claimed that Valencia are ready to meet Hernandez’s buyout clause, which is £33.5 million.

The Mexican striker has established himself as a key figure for Bayer since his move to the German club from United in the summer of 2015.

The former Guadalajara star could never really play regularly for United, although he did perform well from time to time.

The 28-year-old has scored five goals and created 15 chances in 12 Bundesliga appearances for Bayer so far this season.

Hernandez scored 17 goals and created 27 chances in 28 league games for the German club during the 2015-16 campaign.

The striker knows the Premier League inside out, and he would be a good signing for Liverpool or Tottenham.
