Javier Hernandez is demanding £140,000-a-week to join West Ham.

The Bayer Leverkusen striker is available for £13million and the Irons have moved of him in an attempt to solve their striker crisis.

But Hernandez, who also has interest from Tottenham and LA Galaxy, has left West Ham reeling with his wage demands.

The salary would make the 29-year-old the club’s highest earner - shattering the £100,000-a-week being paid to Andy Carroll.

West Ham are trying to reach a compromise deal but they are well aware that Hernandez has an even more lucrative deal on the table from LA Galaxy.

Burnley’s Andre Gray is another option for West Ham.

The 26-year-old marksman, 26, has failed to agree a new deal with the Clarets who are now ready to sell for around £15million.
