According to the ever reliable reliable and trusted Gianluca Di Marzio website, reigning Champions League winners Real Madrid have agreed to sign Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez on a season long loan with €22m option to buy.

We had earlier reported that the Galacticos were willing to offer  €20m for the 26 year old but it is now confirmed that an agreement on loan has been accepted by the Red Devils. The  Mexican will have a medical today at the Spanish capital.

The United striker has fallen out of favour at Old Trafford and had earlier been linked with Italian side Inter but any sort of deal with the Nerazzurri failed to materialize over the summer. 

Mexican national team manager Miguel Hererra also congratulated the striker over the move in Twitter wishing the player the best of luck for his new home.

Llegar al Real Madrid es una gran oportunidad para @CH14_ , a quién le deseo el mejor de los ¡éxitos!
