Back in December 2010, the Reporter tipped three young Tapatio sportsmen for future superstardom.
Two years later, soccer ace Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez, boxer Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Formula One racer Sergio “Checo” Perez have established themselves as world famous figures in their respective sports.
Having joined Manchester United from Chivas de Guadalajara in July 2010, Hernandez, 24, has developed a knack for coming on as a substitute and scoring crucial winning goals. With 42 goals in 101 appearances (many of which came as a substitute) in all competitions for United, he boasts one of the best scoring ratios in English Premier League history, netting on average one goal every 120 minutes.
