Chicharito Javier Hernandez wants out of Manchester United. The extremely popular with the ladies heart-throb has been what he believes to be under-utilized. The striker believes a move away from Old Trafford would get him more first team opportunities. The Mexican International has had a tumultuous football career and has come very close to quitting the sport altogether. It is rumored that Inter Milan is interested in Chicharito, and that’s only heightened Javier Hernandez’s interest in moving on.
But perhaps this photo released by the United themselves in promotional poster makes us believe otherwise.

Yes Chicharito is the poster child for Manchester United‘s 2014 summer pre-season tour in the United States, both for the original announcement of the tour and for United’s double Italian header against Roma and Inter Milan that has now been confirmed.
It would be pretty weird for United to not have him on the tour, since they used him to promote it, correct?
Of course, here in the states, Latinos are the most devoted football loving demographic of all, so Chicharito is on the player currently on the Red Devils who would most appeal to ticket sales. So it makes good business sense to have Javier Hernandez on the cover doesn’t it?
