Ander Herrera has said that he and Manchester United are ‘currently not thinking the same’ as he continues to hold off on signing a new deal with the club.

Herrera , 29, is in his fifth season with the Red Devils but is set to leave Old Trafford on a free transfer when his contract expires this summer.

The Spaniard, who joined Untied from Athletic Bilbao in 2014, has been strongly linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain and indicated that he his no closer to extending his stay with the Premier League club.

When asked about his future, Herrera told Spanish publication ABC: “It’s true that I only have two months on my contract left, and today, Manchester [United] and I aren’t thinking the same and there is no renewal agreement, but my duty is to keep listening to United.

“What I know is that I’m going to continue playing in a big team.”Obviously, I will keep listening to United, but also to other clubs. I am not closing doors.”

Herrera is not the only midfielder in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side to be linked with a move abroad, with Paul Pogba’s future in England increasingly uncertain but manager Ole Gunnarhas repeatedd that he is not for saale.

The France World Cup winner is thought to be a target for Real Madrid , but Herrera hopes his team-mate stays in Manchester.

“Pogba would be a great addition for Madrid and for any team in the universe, but I hope he remains at United,” he said. “He is a midfielder with all the qualities.”

Herrera’s comments came ahead of the first leg of Man Utd’s Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona .

Herrera recognised that the La Liga club will enter the tie as favourites, highlighting the Argentina striker as a big reason.

He said: “It is a very difficult team with few weaknesses, which also has Messi. “When the game gets complicated, he appears and makes a difference, but we will have our options.”
