Newcastle United should reignite interest in West Ham striker Javier Hernandez

West Ham striker Javier Hernandez has admitted that he wanted to leave the Hammers in the January transfer window.

The Mexican joined the club last summer for a fee of £16 million, as reported by Sky Sports, but he has hinted that he could be looking for a move in the summer transfer window.

The 29-year-old is one of the highest paid players at the club, and he is set to be on wages totalling £140,000-per-week.

“There has always been speculation as to whether I will stay or leave and I cannot guarantee anything,” said Hernandez, as quoted by The Mirror.
