Chicharito Hernandez is the most important signing for Chivas in the last decade, but the forward has not been able to make his debut in Clausura 2024 of Liga MX.

The Mexican soccer star, at 35 years old, is going through one of the most challenging moments in his career after a knee injury that sidelined him for most of the 2023 season in the MLS. This led to LA Galaxy not extending his contract.

Javier Hernandez has been recovering for almost nine months, and while great things are expected from him in Liga MX, the reality is that his future is uncertain.
