Barcelona stalwart Javier Mascherano was confirmed to have moved to Chinese Super League side Hebei China Fortune on Wednesday, January 24.

New York Red Bulls are looking to make Mascherano their DP for the upcoming season to sure up their leaking defense. Personal terms are yet to be agreed. Mascherano is thought to favor a move to the MLS and in particular New York.
