Ander Herrera has rescinded his contract with Boca Juniors, according to TYC. His next destination will be Spain, where he will finalize his return to Real Zaragoza.

Ander Herrera has announced he is leaving Boca Juniors. His return to Real Zaragoza is agreed with sporting director Lalo Arantegui and coach Ibai Gómez, subject to approval by president Jorge Mas and the Board of Directors. Two years ago, in summer 2024, Herrera declined a move to Zaragoza, stating he did not feel sufficiently valued. After he left Boca Juniors, both Lalo and Ibai Gómez publicly expressed their strong desire for Ander Herrera to join Zaragoza. Lalo stated that if he has a 1% chance of having him with them, he is certain that they will make every possible effort to make it happen.

Spanish midfielder Ander Herrera, aged 36, might not complete his contract with Boca Juniors, which is valid until December. This has led to speculation about a potential return to Real Zaragoza, where sporting director Lalo Arantegui stated he would do everything possible to bring him back. The club's new coach, Ibai Gómez, also expressed his hope for the midfielder to join but confirmed that he has not spoken with him.
