On-loan Real Madrid striker Javier Hernandez could be in charge of his own future tonight as he gets the nod to start for trainer Carlo Ancelotti’s team as they take on Atletico Madrid in the second -leg of their Champions League semi-final.
Normal starter Karim Benzema missed the weekend 3-1 win over Malaga with a knee injury and is set to miss tonight’s encounter as well opening the door for Hernandez to link up with Cristiano Ronaldo in the attack.
Hernandez does not fit in with Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal’s thinking at Old Trafford, and will likely be sold during the summer.
If the 26-year-old Mexican international can put in a good showing tonight it could go a long way in deciding where he could end up next season.
