Manchester United 'confident of fending off Ander Herrera interest'

Manchester United reportedly do not fear losing Ander Herrera, despite growing interest from Paris Saint-Germain.

The Spanish midfielder is due to become a free agent in the summer as talks over a new deal with United appear to have stagnated.

PSG are ready to pounce for Herrera at the end of the season and, according to AS, negotiations between the two parties are at an advanced stage.

United are confident of fending off interest in the 29-year-old, though, as Metro reports that a 12-month extension is close to being agreed.

Premier League rivals Arsenal are also rumoured to be monitoring developments, with boss Unai Emery desperate for a new central midfielder to replace Juventus-bound Aaron Ramsey.
