In case you didn’t know…
Herrera is on the last year of his contract and the club has failed to agree on a deal with him. This standoff between the two parties attracted interest from clubs around Europe who wanted to snap the midfielder.
The heart of the matter
The Red Devils were not prepared to meet his demands of £200,000 per week, a huge rise from his current salary. This drew attention from Paris Saint-Germain. The Ligue 1 champion is set to sign him by offering him a huge contract.
Manchester United confirmed the departure of their prized asset by posting an emotional video of the Spaniard. In the video message, Herrera said:
The Spaniard was proud of the fact that he got a chance to represent the club. He added that he will never forget the time he spent at United.
This is the tweet of Manchester United:
The 29-year-old has played 189 matches for the club scoring 20 goals in the process. He also helped the club in winning four trophies including FA Cup and Europa League.
What’s next?
It remains to be seen if the midfielder will get a chance to make a farewell appearance against Cardiff City on Sunday. It will be very difficult for Manchester United to replace a player like Herrera in the summer.
