  • Ander Herrera has spoken publicly for the first time regarding his ongoing contract standoff with Manchester United.

    The midfielder could leave the club this summer on a free transfer despite having become a fan favourite since arriving at Old Trafford in 2014, making close to 200 appearances for the Red Devils.

    There has been increasing speculation of a move to Paris Saint-Germain, while Arsenal are also thought to be interested in the Spaniard.

    Herrera has previously been discussed as a potential United captain and has worn his heart on his sleeve regarding his love for the club, but admits negotiations over a contract extension have stalled.

    “It’s true that I only have two months on my contract left and, today, Manchester [United] and I aren’t thinking the same and there is no renewal agreement, but my duty is to keep listening to United,” Herrera told ABC.

    “What I have clear is that I’m going to continue playing in a big team.

    “I take care of myself, I work hard and I want to squeeze as much out of football for as long as my body allows me to, because the day after I retire I will start to regret having retired.

    “I will listen to United, of course, but also to other clubs. I do not close any doors.”
