West Ham United sold Mexican striker Javier Hernandez to Sevilla on Monday for £7 million, taking his huge £140,000-a-week wages off their bill.
The former Manchester United star is set to pocket around £53,000-a-week at the La Liga club and his decision to agree to such a huge pay cut surprised Sevilla.
Hernandez submitted a transfer request last Friday, and it doesn’t seem fans or West Ham players are gutted he has left.
Apart from scoring just 17 goals in 63 appearances for the Hammers – a poor return after his 39 goals in 76 appearances for Bayern Leverkusen convinced the club to spend £17million on his signature two summers ago – the 31-year-old wasn’t particularly popular in the dressing room.
