Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez has left Manchester United to join
Bayer Leverkusen on a three-year contract, the Bundesliga club announced
on Monday.
Hernandez, 27, passed a medical with the Bundesliga club on Monday after he was allowed to travel to Germany with a reported fee of 8.75 million agreed.
The striker told Bayer Leverkusen's website: "I know the English
Premier League and the Primera Division in Spain, two of the three major
European leagues. Now I want to experience the Bundesliga.
"It's
wonderful that I get to play for a club like Bayer Leverkusen. It's a
great opportunity for me and I want to achieve something here."
Bayer
Leverkusen sporting director Rudi Voller said: "With 'Chicharito,' we
have more possible variations and we'll be more unpredictable. He's a
lively, agile and fast striker who is strong, has a good technique and a
very good record. I am delighted that he has chosen to join Bayer
Leverkusen. The Bundesliga can look forward to seeing a great player."
