With three starts so far this season with Atlético de Madrid and eleven substitutions, Héctor Herrera is experiencing the saddest moment of his career and since he arrived at the mattress team. In addition, it is difficult for the midfielder to assimilate that the Argentine coach, Diego Pablo Simeone, does not count.
“It is difficult because one always wants to play, be the protagonist, participate and everything. At least I try to be calm and work for when I have to play and I get an opportunity to take advantage of it. The truth is that many times I go home screwed up, which is where one can be as one is or express what one feels”, the Mexican pointed out in an interview with EFE.
On the other hand, in the UEFA Champions League has only played two commitments out of a possible six and it remains to be seen if they take the field this Tuesday in the first leg of the round of 16 against Manchester United. While in the Copa del Rey, he managed to start in one match.
“At home with my wife I also talk a lot about this topic, especially when I don’t play, when I have little participation . It is difficult to assimilate that you are not participating, that they do not take you into account. It is difficult to get home and be in the same mood“, added the footballer of 31 years.
The difficult The situation of the soccer player born in Rosarito, Mexico, has led him to think very hard about his future in professional football. At times he has thought about returning to his country, although according to international media reports, he also has proposals from American soccer
“I would love to stay. I want to have more participation, but, if it were up to me, I would gladly stay. Sometimes I think about going back to Mexico because it is my country, my children have not lived in Mexico either, my family is there and one always wants to be close to his family, but I think it is not the time yet. I hope I can stay here for a few years“, concluded the Mexican.
For now, it only remains to wait for the rest of the season to elapse to find out if the Mexican earns a place in the team of “El Cholo Simeone” who is also in a very difficult moment and needs the joke of the Mexican.
