Herrera: 'No truth to Barcelona reports'

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has said that there is "no truth" to reports that he is considering a move to Barcelona in this summer's transfer window.

Herrera, whose current deal with United will expire next summer, was named the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year last season, where he made 50 appearances in all competitions.

In May, it was claimed that Herrera was a leading transfer target for new Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde, who coached the Spain international at Athletic Bilbao.

However, it has since been reported that the Red Devils are not prepared to sell the 27-year-old this summer as they look to commit the midfielder to a long-term contract.

"There's no truth to Barcelona because I'm very happy at United. I also feel valued by United and I'm focused on them," Herrera told reporters.

Herrera was a part of the United team that opened their pre-season preparations with a 5-2 win over MLS outfit Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday night.
