Midfielder Ander Herrera has reportedly signalled his intent to sign a new contract with Manchester United.

Earlier this month, it was claimed that Herrera had been made one of Barcelona's main transfer targets, with Ernesto Valverde - who has worked with Herrera at Athletic Bilbao - being named as the replacement for Luis Enrique.

However, according to The Telegraph, the 27-year-old will instead opt to commit his future to United after an impressive campaign at Old Trafford.

Since the arrival of Jose Mourinho, the Spanish international has established himself as one of the first names on the teamsheet and was rewarded for his form by collecting the club's Player of the Year accolade.

Herrera has just 12 months remaining on his existing deal, which had partly led to Barcelona looking to tempt him to Camp Nou, but he is now likely to pen a long-term contract.

Herrera made 44 starts in all competitions during the 2016-17 campaign.
