🔙 Ander Herrera set for imminent return, says ESPN | OneFootball

The recovery of Spanish footballer Ander Herrera at Boca Juniors is progressing well. The midfielder, who has been recovering from an injury, has shown significant improvement in the team's recent training sessions.

ESPN journalist Diego Monroig provided details about the player's condition during the broadcast of the program. According to Monroig, Herrera has impressed the coaching staff and his teammates with his performance in practice. "I'm told that every time he connects with (Leandro) Paredes, they play a different game," the journalist commented, emphasizing the good rapport he has with the Argentine international.

Monroig pointed out that if the player maintains the same level of work and intensity, his return to the pitch could be close. "I think one more week, or two more weeks, working in the same way, with this same intensity, and I think we can start talking about Ander Herrera again," he stated.

The journalist also explained the caution with which the coach, Miguel Ángel Russo, is handling the situation. The goal is for Herrera to fully recover and not suffer another injury. "Russo really wants to take it slow, and wants to see him, that he responds well in each of the training sessions," added Monroig.

Even though the midfielder could already be available to play, the club prefers to be cautious. "He's really doing very well," concluded the journalist. "If he hadn't had a history of injury after injury, I think today we would be talking about him being available, because he really is, but obviously they want to continue strengthening all that rhythm with at least one or two more weeks thinking about the return of the Bilbao native.".
