Read as he expresses his sadness towards his leaving this morning;
“This is a sad moment to be honest, because I’ve enjoyed the past five years with this club,” said Herrera.
“I want to thank the fans for all they have done for me. I will never forget the way I have been treated by the fans, whether I’ve been playing or whether I’ve been somewhere else. As soon as you give everything for the club, they will support you and love you and I’ve found that.”
“It’s not an easy decision but sometimes in life you have to take decisions. Sometimes the timing is not right and you have to move on.
“When you leave such a big club, you lose much more than what they are losing. I cannot lie, I wasn’t born being a Manchester United fan, but I want you all to know that a part of my heart will always be a Red Devil.”
