Conjecture over fee as Chicharito joins Leverkusen from Man Utd

Javier Hernandez has signed for German outfit Bayer Leverkusen, but confusion reigns over how much the Bundesliga club paid for the Mexican.


The BBC has reported that Manchester United are to receive £7.3million for the striker, who spent last season on loan at Real Madrid.

ESPN have reported a slightly higher figure of £8.75m, while the Daily Mail suggests United have landed £12m from the move.

What's clear is that Hernandez has indeed signed for Leverkusen, with the German club announcing the move via Twitter on Monday night.
