West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini says he hopes Manuel Lanzini stays at the club for a long time

Hernandez's departure will free up money for West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini for a possible arrival in January or next summer.

The 31-year-old joined the Hammers in 2017 from Bayer Leverkusen and played 63 times for the club in all competitions, scoring 17 goals.

Hernandez would be the 14th player to depart West Ham on a permanent or loan move this summer.

Sevilla's top scorer last season Wissam Ben Yedder left for AS Monaco earlier in the window.
