Aston Villa go for Man Utd striker Javier Hernandez

Aston Villa are chasing Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez. The Daily Mail says Hernandez is a shock transfer target for Aston Villa, who are set to raise their recruitment ambitions this summer in a bid to avoid another season of struggle.

The Manchester United striker, 25, is among players Villa manager Paul Lambert has identified as being attainable should the side stay up.

Mexico forward Hernandez has had limited playing time at Old Trafford but would be a key signing for Villa, particularly with Christian Benteke out until October with an Achilles injury.
