PSG growing impatient with Herrera

Although Ander Herrera of Manchester United has reportedly agreed a move to Paris Saint-Germain this summer, the agreement is apparently still only verbal and his signature is yet to appear on a contract.

The Spaniard’s current deal with United is set to expire this summer and the negotiations over a new one have reached an impasse, reportedly over the player’s wage demands of around £200,000 per week with the club willing to offer no more than £125,000 – a significant gap.

However, according to the Mirror, the Ligue 1 champions have grown slightly annoyed with Herrera’s apparent hesitation in fully pledging his future to them, and having already dismissed Adrien Rabiot completely, they are preparing to look elsewhere with a view of potentially obtaining a new central midfielder.

Celta Vigo’s Stanislav Lobotka and Borussia Dortmund’s Julian Weigl, formerly coached by PSG boss Thomas Tuchel, are the two names mentioned as possible alternatives to Herrera, should the 29-year-old take too long to make a final decision.

The Mirror believe that this development may yet help United persuade Herrera to remain at Old Trafford.
