Javier Hernandez injury timescale as update given on former Manchester United striker

LA Galaxy head coach Greg Vanney believes former Manchester United striker and his captain Javier Hernandez will be out of action for the remainder of the MLS season.

Hernandez has been a key player for the Los Angeles team since he joined in 2020 from La Liga side Sevilla. During this time he has scored 39 goals in 83 appearances and has established himself as the skipper too.

This season started poorly for Chicharito after he suffered a muscle injury which kept him out of the opening five MLS fixtures. Upon his return, the 35-year-old scored once in all competitions before suffering a serious knee injury during the defeat to Real Salt Lake in the MLS Cup.
