Ander Herrera set for Banfield return: good news for the Spaniard | OneFootball

This Wednesday, Boca completed a double training session at the Ezeiza complex and the big news was Ander Herrera. The Spanish footballer gave good news to the coaching staff led by Miguel Ángel Russo. The Basque player is expected to be called up for the match against Banfield, which will take place this Sunday at La Bombonera.

Ander Herrera intensified his work on the pitch during Boca’s afternoon practice at the training ground. The players took to the field to get some ball work in after a rainy morning spent doing gym work and a team meeting at the Marriott hotel.

The Bilbao-born footballer will once again be on the list of players called up by Miguel Ángel Russo, who plans to have all squad members concentrate together, except for those who are sidelined (Cristian Lema and Marcelo Saracchi). But Herrera might not only be accompanying the squad as he did in Mendoza; he could also be on the bench and, depending on how the match unfolds, have the chance to play a few minutes.

Herrera is expected to be called up against Banfield.

Regarding the idea of having all players concentrate together, “Miguelo” considers it important for strengthening the group. “The group is here, we have to strengthen it. We’ve always gone everywhere together, and that’s very good because it raises the level, the competition, it lifts a lot of things. We’re getting players back, we’re maintaining the form and the way that’s needed at a club like Boca, at this level,” said the coach in the press conference after the big win over Independiente Rivadavia.
