West Ham United reportedly won’t let Javier Hernandez go out on loan.
According to El Desmarques, West Ham United have rejected Valencia’s loan bid for striker Javier Hernandez, and are demanding a €12million (£10.5million) fee.
The Hammers have been dealing with exit rumours surrounding Marko Arnautovic, but there is also a situation going on with Hernandez in the background.
Hernandez, 30, has started just seven Premier League games for West Ham since Manuel Pellegrini’s arrival as manager, and Sky Sports recently claimed that the Mexican wants to leave for consistent first-team football.
Valencia have been leading the race for Hernandez’s signature, but Hernandez may not get his wish for a move before the end of the transfer window.
El Desmarques report that Valencia have offered to take Hernandez on loan, but West Ham have rejected those terms as they will only sell the striker.
Their asking price is believed to be €12million (£10.5million), and it remains to be seen whether Valencia come up with the funds to strike a deal with the Hammers.
There’s also surely no way West Ham would let Hernandez go without landing a replacement, so it promises to be a fascinating week for Hernandez as he allegedly looks to leave the Hammers and potentially head to Spain.
