Boca to offer Ander Herrera a new deal with improved terms | OneFootball

No one at Boca doubts wanting to have Ander Herrera in the squad in 2026. Due to his leadership, hierarchy, and experience, the Basque is one of the main references and commanding voices of the team that Juan Román Riquelme intends to design. However, the reality also shows that injuries have troubled him, keeping him more off the field than on it during the season, and for that reason, the management decided to offer him a new contract with adjustments.

Since the 36-year-old midfielder did not sign the automatic one-year renewal that was scheduled for October, the deadline expired, and the outlook regarding his continuity changed. This means that if he decides to continue playing football with the Xeneize jersey, he will have to accept the new conditions that the club will propose in his contract.

What are they? Today, there are two options being considered in the Boca World regarding Herrera's contract for the next year: that it be based on productivity, meaning based on matches played and objectives achieved on the field; or that it includes a salary reduction compared to his current fixed compensation.

The institution's stance is strictly related to the fragile physical condition the Basque has shown since his arrival, precisely the same reason that leads the player himself to consider the possibility of ending his career.

All the club's members want to have the former PSG player in the squad for a year in which the Copa Libertadores will once again be the main focus, but he will have to accept those contractual terms. Now, the final word belongs to the player, who has decided to think about what will be best for his career after suffering five muscle injuries in the season and only participating in 17 of the team's 44 matches (38% presence).
