Manchester United star, Ander Herrera reportedly revealed to Mundo Deportivo, about the uncertainty if he will sign a contract extension with the Reds. For this Herrera article we had a quick chat with John Henderson, Premier League specialist for FootballPredictions.com, to hear his opinion.
Back in November last year, the Red Devils board push the button of the one-year extension clause in his current contract which will see at the club till the summer of 2019.
The Spanish midfielder confirmed that talks for a new contract extension is in the works and that as of now his future career is undecided.
The 28-year-old said via ESPN: “I’m going to fulfill the year I’ve got left but I don’t know if I will renew, We have started talks but nothing is decided yet.”
“I’m privileged because I dedicate myself to what I dreamed of when I was very young,” he continued. “I enjoy coming each day to the changing room, going out to train, seeing stadiums full of people and having a photograph taken with fans that wait for us at Carrington.”
Last season, the Spanish-born midfielder played a pivotal role in the midfield for the team in their run of winning the Europa League and the League Cup, which saw him gathered 50 appearances in all competitions, and took the award of the man of the match in the Europa League final against Dutch side Ajax.
“Obviously, you are happier when you play, but I am also comforted by being physically well, training to the maximum and going home with the knowledge that I’ve given my all,” he said.
The United midfielder went on to lay his claims about Barcelona star Sergio Busquets being the best midfielder in the world.
“What I like is to give solutions to the coach,” he said. “I’m a team player and I want to be a part wherever. … I even played at right back last season against Everton at Old Trafford.”
Speaking on the video that surfaced showing Herrera spitting on Manchester City badge, the Spanish said: “It’s ridiculous to think that I would do something like that deliberately,” he said. “I didn’t even know that I had spat. I then looked at the images and I saw that I did.
“I know where the idea to find the guilty one comes from in order to put the focus of attention on that issue and not on the fact that we had turned around the derby.”
During the last campaign, Herrera was widely known for his marksman on Chelsea superstar, Eden Hazard in a 2-0 victory. Several premier league predictions didn’t expect this result.
