Ander Herrera wants to stay at Manchester United despite interest from Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, sources have told ESPN FC.
The midfielder is yet to sign a new long-term deal at Old Trafford, with reports in Spain suggesting that has alerted at least two La Liga clubs in Barca and Atletico.
United have triggered Herrera's one-year extension that will keep him at the club until 2019, and there is confidence on both sides that the 28-year-old, who is settled in Manchester with his girlfriend and young daughter, will agree a new deal to extend his stay even further.
Herrera played a key role under Jose Mourinho last season, winning United's Player of the Year award and being named Man of the Match in the Europa League final.
He found opportunities harder to come by at the start of this season following the arrival of Nemanja Matic from Chelsea, but since Paul Pogba has been sidelined with a hamstring injury, he has started eight of United's last 11 games in all competitions.
