According to ESPN FC, talks to bring the Bayer Leverkusen striker to MLS, in particular Los Angeles FC, have cooled down over the past few weeks due to Chicharito’s high salary demands.
Initially, it was reported back in February that Hernández‘s salary would be around $9 million, but now it is being reported that the Mexican is demanding an annual salary of over $10 million, which would make the former Manchester United striker the richest player in the history of the league, exceeding Kaka’s current annual salary of $7.2 million by over $2 million.
