Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has revealed he will leave Old Trafford at the end of the season amid reports of a move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Herrera's United contract expires at the end of the season and it is believed he has lined up a deal with French champions PSG.

United hadn't commented on Herrera's future, but the 29-year-old Spaniard posted a goodbye message to fans via the club's Twitter account on Saturday.

"There is red in my heart, I knew it from the first time I played here and in the moment I started to wear it," said Herrera, who has also been linked with Arsenal, Juventus and Inter Milan.

"Every time I represented this club, in every game, in wins and losses, even when I couldn't help from the grass, I understood what this club means.

"I am going to remember each of the almost 200 matches that I have played with this jersey. Because playing for the greatest club in England, has been a true honour. Thanks for these five amazing years."
