Javier Hernandez Balcazar is a Mexican footballer who plays as a forward for English Premier League club Manchester United and the Mexican national team. Hernandez plays with his nickname, Chicharito (Spanish: little pea), on his shirt. He previously played for the Mexican club Guadalajara, before becoming the first Mexican player to join Manchester United.
Hernandez made his debut for Mexico in September 2009 in a match against Colombia. He has also represented them at the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup. He was the Gold Cup's top scorer with 7 goals and was named the most valuable player of the tournament

Manchester United
Manchester United were first made aware of Hernandez in October 2009; a scout went to Mexico that December and reported positively after watching a few games. Because of Hernandez's age, the club originally planned to wait before making a move to sign him, but his potential involvement with the national team at the World Cup rushed the club into making a bid. United's chief scout, Jim Lawlor, was sent to Mexico for three weeks in February and March to watch Hernandez and filed another positive report on him, before the club solicitor went over to Mexico to finalise the paperwork.

On 8 April 2010, Hernandez agreed a deal to sign for Manchester United for an undisclosed fee, subject to a work permit application. The previous day, Hernandez had been present at Manchester United's Champions League quarter-final win over Bayern Munich at Old Trafford. The deal was conducted in complete secrecy; Hernandez's agent was kept in the dark, as was his grandfather Tomas Balcazar, who thought Hernandez was going on a trip to Atlanta in the United States. As part of the deal, United played a friendly against Chivas to open their new stadium on 30 July. On 27 May, the work permit was granted, allowing the transfer to be made official on 1 July.

2012-13 season
Hernandez began his third season with United on 2 September 2012, coming on as a 72nd minute substitute for Danny Welbeck in a 3-2 win against Southampton. On 15 September, he was named in the starting eleven for the match against Wigan Athletic, playing all 90 minutes and scoring his first goal of the season, as well as assisting in teammate Nick Powell's goal in a 4-0 victory. He did however miss a penalty in the 5th minute, when his effort was saved by Wigan goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi.
