Man Utd agree to upgrade Chicharito deal to £80,000-a-week

Manchester United are ready to upgrade the contract of Javier Hernandez.

The Daily Star Sunday says Hernandez expects to agree a new five-year contract with Manchester United within a month.

His new deal will see his weekly pay rocket from £25,000 to £80,000.

Chicharito’s original contract still has three years to run – but United agreed in June to review that deal after his fantastic first season at the club.

Those talks were delayed due to United’s pre-season tour of the USA and the striker’s injury problems.

But that situation is set to be resolved with both sides keen to reach an agreement quickly.
