Chicharito: US special for me - my first Man Utd game and training session was there

Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez is looking forward to joining his teammates later during their US preseason tour.

Chicharito has been given extra time off after helping Mexico win the Gold Cup.

He told manutd.com: "I have so many great memories of last year's tour. It was the first chance I got to meet up with the team, I had my first training session and played my first match.

"I remember everything about the experience very well, especially my first game [in Houston against the MLS All-Stars]. There was a great atmosphere in the stadium. We won the game 5-2 and I managed to score.

"The support we have throughout the world is incredible and it was great to see that in America last summer. For me personally everyone was very nice - there are a lot of Mexican people in the States who gave me wonderful support."
