Originally from Pinar del Río, Jenry Hernández arrived in Spain when he was just one year old, as reported by Diario de Cuba.

The aforementioned source specified, moreover, that the contract would be for three years.

Hernández comes from Unión Esportivo Cornellà, in Catalonia, where he was signed by the merengue team since February of this year, with plans to join his current team starting from the newly commenced season.

The Cuban-origin teenager is accompanied by an impressive physique of 1.80 meters in height.

Cadet A is made up of players aged 15 and 16, generally corresponding to the under-16 categories.

That team plays a crucial role in the development of young talents who, if they progress appropriately, can rise to higher categories such as the Youth team or, eventually, to the affiliate team (Real Madrid Castilla) or even to the first team.

The Cadete A competes in local and national leagues in its category, and the main objective is the technical, tactical, and physical development of the players, maintaining the playing style and values of the club. It is considered an important step in the careers of young footballers on their path to professionalism.

Jenry Hernández started the 2024-2025 Cadete Super League of Madrid with a goal on the opening day during the crushing 5-0 victory over México FC on September 29th.
