Costa Rican young gun Hernandez not on way to Man Utd

The Costa Rican Football Federation has denied claims that Luis Jose Hernandez is set to join Manchester United.

Costa Rica U17 coach Randall Chacon suggested on the weekend that the talented 16-year old left-back had agreed a move to Old Trafford but FEDEFUT's Director of Communications Cristiam Williams has played down that talk.

"[Chacon's claim] currently has no basis, the player was in England in January 2014 doing an internship, but there is no contract and no possibility of it," Williams reportedly told Sensacion Deportiva.
