MANCHESTER — Midfielder Ander Herrera confirmed he's leaving Manchester United after its season ends this weekend.

The Spain international has made 189 appearances for United, and 20 goals, and is widely reported to be going to Paris Saint-Germain

Herrera's contract ends this season after five years at United, and he posted a goodbye on the club's Twitter account on Saturday.

He was signed from Athletic Bilbao in the 2014 offseason, and helped United win the FA Cup in 2016 and the English League Cup and Europa League in 2017, when he was voted by fans as the United player of the season.
