Francisco Javier "Javi" Hernández González (born 6 June 1989) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Indian Super League club Jamshedpur.

Club career

Born in Salamanca, Castile and León, Hernández reached Real Madrid's youth academy in 2005 at the age of 16, signing from local UD Salamanca.[1] He made his senior debut in the 2008–09 season with Real Madrid Castilla in Segunda División B, appearing in 24 games but only starting in three of those.

On 1 February 2011, after having totalled only ten league matches in one and a half seasons, Hernández was loaned to Halmstads BK in Sweden, alongside Castilla teammates Raúl and José Zamora.[2] He returned to his country in the summer, going on to continue competing in the third tier the following years with Salamanca, CD Ourense and Burgos CF.[3]

On 31 August 2016, Hernández joined Górnik Łęczna.[4] On 15 June 2017, he moved to Azerbaijan Premier League club Gabala FK on a one-year contract with an optional second year,[5] but left shortly after and returned to the Polish Ekstraklasa with KS Cracovia.[6]

In August 2019, Hernández signed a deal at ATK of the Indian Super League.[7][8] He scored twice in his debut campaign to win the national championship, with both of his goals coming in the 3–1 final win over Chennaiyin FC.[9]

After a merger, Hernández agreed to a one-year contract with the newly formed ATK Mohun Bagan FC on 30 September 2020.[10] The following 30 July, he moved to Odisha FC of the same league on a one-year deal.[11][12] He scored in the latter's first match of the season against Bengaluru FC (3–1 home victory),[13] repeating the feat the following round – through a direct corner kick – as the hosts defeated SC East Bengal 6–4.[14]

Hernández continued in the Indian top division in June 2022, on a two-year contract at Bengaluru.[15][16] Once it expired, he signed for Jamshedpur FC also in that league.[17]

Personal life

Guti, who spent the vast majority of his professional career with Real Madrid, is Hernández's cousin.[18]
