Javier Hernandez and Atletico Dallas
Monday
Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez has joined USL Championship expansion club Atletico Dallas as its first player. Mexico’s record scorer signed a two-year contract with an option for a third season, pending approval, before the club’s 2027 debut.
The 38-year-old will become the face of the new second-tier project and is expected to move into its sporting department later. Dallas will play at the Cotton Bowl and hopes his profile accelerates recruitment, support and long-term growth.
