Father of Man Utd striker Hernandez eyeing English coaching career

The father of new Manchester United signing Javier Hernandez admits he is keen to seek out a coaching career in England.

A former World Cup player himself, Javier Snr will be moving with his son to Manchester for the coming season.

He told manutd.com: "What I want to do initially is to watch football throughout Europe and learn about the footballing culture.

"Then if an opportunity arises to coach over there or in Mexico again I'm better prepared. I'm not afraid of the move, I'm going there with pride for my son. He's always wanted to play football in Europe since he started playing. He's got the chance with one of the top two or three teams in Europe and the world."
