West Ham to up ante in chase for Man Utd striker Chicharito

West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic is ready to up his efforts to sign Mexican striker Javier Hernandez.


Hernandez spent last season on loan at Real Madrid and is not considered part of Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal's plans for next season.

According to Goal.com, Bilic may step up his efforts to sign Chicharito by offering United £9million.

Bilic, however, faces competition for the 27-year-old's signature from Liverpool and MLS side Orlando City.
