Orlando City keen to sign Javier Hernandez

Orlando City head coach Adrian Heath has admitted that he would be "delighted" to add Javier Hernandez to his squad.

The Mexican striker, who is nearing the end of a season-long loan stint at Real Madrid, is expected to leave his parent club Manchester United this summer.

With Madrid not expected to sign him on a permanent basis, the 26-year-old has been linked with a host of teams, including a number in the MLS.

One of those is Orlando and Heath has conceded that he would have no hesitation in signing the centre-forward.

"I think that Chicharito, as he has proved at Real Madrid, would fit into our team very nicely," Heath told the MLS's official website.

"He is a quality player and I don't think there is a team in the MLS that wouldn't want him, we are included in that. We will see of it comes to fruition. I will be delighted if it does."

Hernandez has just 12 months left to run on his contract at Old Trafford.
