Former Manchester United star Ander Herrera confirms illness diagnosis in health update

Ander Herrera has revealed he is suffering from viral conjunctivitis which has kept him out of action for much longer than expected, though he hopes he will return soon.

Former Manchester United fan favourite Herrera had been a key player for Paris Saint-Germain this season, playing 26 games in all competitions, but now hasn't made an appearance for nearly a month. He was last involved in a match on February 19 as an unused substitute in a shock defeat to Nantes.

PSG announced that an eye infection is what is keeping the midfielder out of action a week ago and now he has spoken about the problem himself. Herrera revealed that his initial recovery time was supposed to only be a few days but he is now entering his third week of having the infection, with it now affecting his vision while trying to train on his own.
