Man Utd midfielder Herrera: We want to win Europa League for Zlatan - and don't forget Rojo!

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera insists the players want to win the Europa League for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

United will face Ajax in Stockholm on May 24 after they secured a 2-1 aggregate win over Celta Vigo.

Asked if United would be fighting for Ibrahimovic, Herrera told BT Sport: "And for Marcos Rojo as well. He has a very big injury, same as Zlatan and we will fight for both.

"For both, for us, for the injured players - Zlatan, Rojo, Young, Shaw, Fosu-Mensah, Smalling and Jones, they have both been injured. We are a team."

He added: "We have played a lot of games in a row, we were fighting for the top four as well, it has been a crazy schedule but we have to be focused on the final.

"We know through the league it will be almost impossible so we have to go to the final with everything and it can be a very good season."
