Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal doesn't have Javier Hernandez in his long-term plans.

The Mexican striker is on a season-long loan with Real Madrid in the hope of securing a permanent move.

But Hernandez has struggled to make an impact at the Bernabeu, with Real boss Carlo Ancelotti set to send him back to Old Trafford at the end of the season.

The Daily Star says even if United don't decide to sign on-loan Colombian Radamel Falcao from Monaco, boss Louis van Gaal is still determined to sell Hernandez.

It will represent a remarkable fall from grace for Hernandez, who burst onto the scene with United in 2010, scoring on his debut before going on to plunder 20 goals in his first season.
