The Spanish midfielder will wear the No. 21 shirt as he did in Manchester and has signed a five-year deal that will keep him at the French club until 2024.
“Paris Saint-Germain is the greatest club in France,” said Herrera, after signing until June 2024.
“It keeps on improving and competes to win every possible title.
“I was looking forward to coming to Paris and to wearing those colours. I hope to continue to make history with the club. Joining this club is an amazing feeling.
“I promise three things: work, professionalism and passion. I also promise to improve my French because I think that the language is very important for the team’s communication.”
