The Ander Herrera’s arrival at Boca Juniors is a little closer…but it cannot be taken for granted yet, by any means.
According to information from Argentina, Boca already has an offer prepared to convince the player, offer which would consist of a one-year contract, with the option of another based on what both parties agree on in December. On the Boca side, The intention is clear: the club believes that Ander can provide it with experience and wisdom with the ball in the center of the field. He wants it.
But the second part of the story is missing, and that is Ander Herrera leaves Athletic, with whom he has a contract until June 2025. Athletic is about to start the Super Cup in Saudi Arabia and this may delay the negotiation between the player and the Basque club a bit.
As we have always reviewed in MARCA, Ander, an exemplary player throughout his career, at no time does he want to be disrespectful to the Bilbao club and wants to respect the times. For this reason, the start of the Super Cup does not seem like a good scenario to negotiate. We’ll see what happens.
But to get something clear from all this: Boca wants Ander; Ander wants to play for Boca; and now all that remains is for Athletic and Ander reach an agreement to separate in January. From what we have found out at MARCA, the club would not have any problems terminating him. But you have to reach an agreement first.
He sHerrera’s dream of living the Argentine experience seems closerand in Buenos Aires he would meet again with the former Athletic captain, Iker Muniain, who is going to experience his second Argentine League with San Lorenzo.
