Chicharito Hernandez has been one of the biggest disappointments for Chivas in his long awaited return to Mexico. Although Guadalajara clinched a berth in the playoffs, the striker’s production is terrible as a top paid player in Liga MX scoring only one goal.

After a crushing knee injury in MLS, LA Galaxy decided not to extend Javier’s contract. In that uncertain moment, Chivas’ owner, Amaury Vergara, believed it was the right time to bring him home.

It’s important to remember that Chicharito was developed by the famous Rebaño in youth categories and, in 2010, Jorge Vergara made a historic agreement to sell CH14 to Manchester United.
