<\/p>\nThe club had earlier announced that the Spaniard will be leaving, amid reports he will join Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season.<\/p>\n
The 29-year-old, who was named the club\u2019s Player of the Year by United fans in 2016-17, has made 132 Premier League appearances during five seasons at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
Herrera has started 16 of United\u2019s league matches this season, struggling to hold down a regular place as he once did under Jose Mourinho.<\/p>\n
In an emotional video message posted via the club\u2019s official Twitter account, Herrera said:<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is red in my heart. I knew it from the first time I played here and in the moment that I started to wear it.<\/p>\n
\u201cA club with thousands of fans that respect and remember all the players who give everything.<\/p>\n
\u201cI felt special when I heard my name chanted. I felt proud when the fans decided I was part of this incredible history.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery time I represented this club, in every game, in wins and losses, even when I couldn\u2019t help from the grass I understood what this club means.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to remember each of the almost 200 matches that I have played with this jersey because playing for the greatest club in England has been a true honour.<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks for these five amazing years!\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
