Chicharito returns to training

|

Javier Hernandez was back in training this morning at Rush Green and is expected to be available this weekend for the trip to Spurs. The Mexican striker had been suffering from a bad ear despite social media posts from his girlfriend suggesting he was on holiday in Italy last week.

Unlike David Moyes, Manuel Pellegrini now gives two consecutive days off to the players when playing on Saturday (Sunday and Monday) This means they can jet off with their families on Saturday night and fly home Monday evening and many take advantage of these two-day breaks.

Last week Chicharito was photographed by his girlfriend Sarah Kohan on a private jet to Italy, it turned out that the photographs were from an earlier weekend trip and the striker was back at the London Stadium with the squad on Good Friday despite being unfit for the game against Leicester City.

Yesterday a new picture emerged on social media of  Chicharito larking about in Italy in the snow over the Easter weekend.

Club insiders have insisted the striker did have a bad ear and had earlier posted a photo of himself on his personal Instagram story showing his swollen face. Claret and Hugh have been told he has now recovered from the infection and has resumed normal training this morning.
