Back in La Liga Herrera has joined Girona on a season-long loan from Manchester City.

Impact Herrera makes the inevitable move back to La Liga after spending prior seasons with Huesca, Granada and Espanyol. Given the minutes he racked up in prior loan spells, it only makes sense for him to find a significant role in Girona's midfield where he'll play in more of a defensive role.

Takes shot in draw Herrera took a shot and created a chance in last weekend's 0-0 draw against Granada. He also made two clearances in the match.

Impact Herrera began the season out with a thigh injury until October, but the 24-year-old grew into his role at his new club and ended his loan campaign with a goal and an assist in 23 La Liga appearances (19 starts) in midfield. This likely isn't enough for parent club Manchester City to recall his services however, so he'll likely be sent on-loan once again in 2022/23.

Red card in loss Herrera was sent off after 46 minutes for a second yellow card in Espanyol's 2-1 loss to Alaves on Wednesday.

Impact Herrera's sending off was just after half-time for a second yellow card. This was the Venezuelan international's second red. He has also received five yellow cards in his 22 appearances (18 starts).

Impact Herrera was very lively in the first half of Wednesday's game, but he was sent off right at the start of the second, and he will now be suspended for Saturday's clash against Valencia. Oscar Melendo or Manu Morlanes will likely replace him in midfield for the game.

Suspended against Atletico Herrera will miss Sunday's clash against Atletico Madrid with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Herrera picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in last weekend's victory over Celta, meaning he will be suspended for Sunday's match. Manu Morlanes might be most likely to replace him in defensive midfield, but Nico Melamed, Fran Merida and David Lopez are also options as well.

Busy defensively Herrera made four tackles and five clearances during Saturday's one-all draw with Espanyol.

Impact Herrera was busy throughout Saturday's draw though most of his work was behind the ball. While he was a defensive option with Granada, Herrera has become a true defensive midfielder for Espanyol, rarely getting forward in any way. His role has really limited his fantasy upside, as he only has six chances created in 15 appearances so far.

MARCH 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Named to match-day squad Herrera (undisclosed) will be available off the bench against Athletic on Monday.

Impact Herrera has been out of the squad for the club's last four matches but is at least fit enough to be a substitute option. Once back up to full match fitness, the midfielder should be in contention to reclaim his place in the starting XI. In his last six appearances (all starts), Herrera notched one goal on four shots (one on target), one assist and five crosses (two accurate).

FEBRUARY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Friday Herrera (undisclosed) was once again left out of the match-day squad against Betis on Friday.

Impact Herrera will be on the shelf for his fourth consecutive contest due to his lingering undisclosed injury. Prior to getting hurt, the midfielder has started six straight contests in which he recorded one goal on four shots (one on target), one assist and five crosses (two accurate). While not the focal point of the club's attack, Herrera should offer decent mid-range fantasy value once cleared to return.

JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with injury Herrera was not in Espanyol's match day squad for Monday's 2-1 defeat against Elche due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Herrera has missed Espanyol's last two La Liga games after starting six in a row between November and December, but he will have another week to recover before the clash against Cadiz on Jan. 18.

JANUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Provides assist in win Herrera provided an assist, had two off-target shots, made two tackles (both won), drew two fouls and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 4-3 win over Levante.

Impact Herrera had his second appearance on the scoresheet over his last three starts, this time assisting Raul De Tomas for his side's second goal in the 49th minute. The midfielder looks consolidated in the starting lineup after fully recovering from the injury that made him miss the start of the season. Up next for Herrera is Friday's visit to Celta Vigo.

DECEMBER 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Herrera scored one goal on his only shot and won three-of-four tackles during Sunday's 1-0 win over Real Sociedad.

Impact Herrera toppled the league leaders with his first goal of the season in just his third start. A player often known for his tackling abilities and tendency to commit fouls, he's also capable of the occasional key moment in the attack as he helped his side to a second win in three matches. Up next on the schedule is a trip to Rayo Vallecano, which have conceded the second-most tackles to midfielders in La Liga.

NOVEMBER 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Available as substitute Herrera (thigh) was named to the match-day squad versus Cadiz on Monday.

Impact Considering Herrera has yet to get onto the pitch for the club this season, his appearance as a substitute option shouldn't come as a surprise. The midfielder started 25 of 32 appearances for Granada last year and should be in the mix for the starting XI once fully fit.

OCTOBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Out vs. Sevilla Herrera (thigh) is out for Saturday's clash with Sevilla after failing to make the preliminary squad list.

Impact Herrera will be sidelined Saturday as a thigh injury continues to wreak havoc on his season. The midfielder will look to make his return early in October, though his timeline for return is still uncertain at best.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Wednesday Herrera (thigh) will be unavailable versus Deportivo Alaves on Wednesday.

Impact With the quick turnaround for a mid-week clash, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see Herrera still on the shelf. The midfielder has yet to get onto the pitch for Espanyol this season and appears no closer to playing at this point, especially with Saturday's meeting with Sevilla right around the corner.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Still injured Herrera (undisclosed) is still unable to train while dealing with a thigh injury, according to La Grada.

Impact Herrera missed the end of last season with a thigh injury and could still be out with the same issue. While he's sure to be a featured member of the lineup once fit, his debut will likely have to wait until he's recovered from this injury.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Loaned to Espanyol Herrera has joined Espanyol on a season-long loan from Manchester City, the club announced Tuesday.

Impact Herrera already has plenty of La Liga experience, having spent two-and-a-half years in total on loan with Granada and Huesca. Last season, he made a combined 34 starts in La Liga and the Europa League with Granada, so the 23-year-old will expect to challenge for playing time in Espanyol's midfield.

AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ends season injured Herrera missed the final three matches of the season with a thigh injury.

Impact Herrera was a key piece to the pie in helping Granada reach the quarterfinals of the Europa League, but may be too costly for the club to keep him next season. He'll likely return to parent club Manchester City before his next destination is decided.

MAY 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Out against Alaves Herrera (thigh) will miss Sunday's match against Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Herrera picked up the injury last week against Real Betis and he's already missed one match with the injury. He may just be held out for the rest of the season given some of the injury issues for this club and little to play for aside from a place in the table. Yan Brice Eteki and Maxime Gonalons are the most recent pairing in defensive-midfield.
