Liverpool, Arsenal to battle for Javier Hernandez

Liverpool and Arsenal are expected to go head-to-head in the race to sign Bayer Leverkusen striker Javier Hernandez in the summer.

The Mexican international has been in prime form for the Bundesliga side since his move from Manchester United last year.

Spanish outlet Fichajes suggests that the Reds and Gunners are keeping a close eye on Chicharito, who has amassed an incredible tally of 22 goals this season.

Adding to this, the Premier League duo have been tipped to lodge bids of their own for the 27-year-old during the next transfer window.

Hernandez is thought to be eyeing a return to the Premier League next term.
