Report: West Ham United to increase Javier Hernandez bid

West Ham United will reportedly increase their bid for Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez as cover for Andy Carroll.

West Ham United will reportedly make an increased offer for Javier Hernandez after having a bid for the Manchester United striker rejected earlier this month.

The Hammers have been heavily linked with the Mexican, but a bid thought to be in the region of £9m was not enough to convince the forward's current club to allow him to leave.

According to the London Evening Standard, Slaven Bilic is still keen to bring in Hernandez with Andy Carroll still recovering from knee surgery, resulting in the club preparing a second offer.

Hernandez spent last season on loan at Real Madrid, where he scored nine goals in 33 appearances for the La Liga side.
