Overview
- Journalist Mauricio Loret de Mola reported that coach Jorge Fossati likes the Liverpool (Uruguay) striker, though no contact or agreement has been made.
- The forward’s current priority is to stay in Uruguay, with Peñarol interested in repatriating him, according to the same report.
- Hernández has produced 25 goals in 36 matches in 2025, leading Liverpool’s scoring.
- Any potential move would target Universitario’s 2026 project and could create competition up front alongside Álex Valera if completed.
- Universitario is planning reinforcements for Liga 1 and the 2026 Copa Libertadores, as a previous precontract Hernández signed with Sporting Cristal earlier this year fell through.
