Ander Herrera Says He Would Like to Sit Among Manchester United's Away Fans

Ander Herrera has endeared himself to Manchester United fans since joining from Athletic Bilbao in 2014.

The Spanish midfielder, who cost the Red Devils £29 million, is so content with the Old Trafford faithful that he has promised to sit with them at an away game, should he miss out due to injury or suspension.

Herrera told Express.co.uk:

"

I would like to go to one away game with the fans one day because our away fans are unbelievable. 

They are always singing and very noisy and they help us a lot. That is why I celebrate my goals with them because I have to say "thank you" to them for supporting us.

They travel around the world, they spend the money, they spend the time so I think we have to be very, very thankful.

Should he live up to his promise, he wouldn't be the first United player to do so—former stars such as Gary Neville, Roy Keane, David Beckham and Rio Ferdinand have also joined United supporters in the away end.
