The forward has shone for Real Madrid recently, scoring three goals in his last two games including the winner against Atletico Madrid.
Carlo Ancelotti has acknowledged he should have looked to use Javier Hernandez earlier in the season with the Mexican back among the goals for Real Madrid.
The Manchester United loanee was used sparingly during the first few months of his spell at the Santiago Bernabeu before injuries to Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale offered him a starting berth against Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
With Benzema, Bale and Luka Modric all out, Hernandez was the hero against Atletico - scoring two minutes from time to ensure progression - before then netting twice in Sunday's 4-2 win at Celta Vigo.
