Real Madrid have completed the signing of Mexican striker Javier ‘chicharito’ Hernandez on a season-long loan from Manchester United while Italian forward Alessio Cerci completed a permanent move to Atletico Madrid.

26-year old Hernandez, nicknamed Chicharito, joins the European champions following 154 appearances for Manchester United where he scored 59 goals during a four-year spell.

Hernandez becomes Madrid’s fourth signing of the summer following James Rodriguez from AS Monaco, Toni Kroos from Bayern Munich and Costa Rican goalkeeper Keylor Navas from Levante.

Meanwhile at Atletico, Cerci penned a three-year deal with the reigning La Liga champions to end a two-year spell at Serie A Torino during which he scored 21 goals and assisted 19 more.

After passing his medical and finalising the move, the 27-year old stated ”Atleti is a team in continuous evolution that always wants to win, I am very proud to be here.”

Elsewhere on transfer deadline day, Premier League club Hull City completed the signing of Uriguayan striker Abel Hernandez from Italian side Palermo for a club record fee of £10m.

The 24-year old scored 14 goals in 28 Serie B matches for Palermo last season and has now signed a three-year deal with last season’s FA Cup finalists with the option of a further year afterwards.

Dutch midfielder Marco van Ginkel has joined AC Milan on a season-long loan from Chelsea, a day after Fernando Torres made the same move on a two-year loan deal.
