Irons surprise at bookies Hernandez odds
Sky Bet have installed Spurs as 2/1 best bets to grab the Manchester Unietd striker with nobody seemingly accepting that he will be staying at Old Trafford.
As reported here, the Irons have already had one bid of £9 million turned down and that was immediately followed by OT boss Luis van Gaal claiming the Mexican was not for sale.
Since then however, Portuguese side Benfica have entered the fray and according to the Mirror want the player on loan next season.
The Hammers, however, don’t see any reason for the bookies to be lengthening their odds to three points beyond Spurs.
A source told us: “We have made a bid and are continuing to monitor things very carefully. He remains very high on our target list. These odds surprise us.”
Latest odds for Hernandez’s next club: Spurs 2/1 West Ham 4/1 Aston Villa 12/1 Sevilla 12/1 To stay at United 11/10.
Odds vary at various betting outlets
