The 35-year-old Spanish footballer trained separately from the rest of the team ahead of the match against Defensa y Justicia in the Professional Football League (LPF).

Boca Juniors faces a challenging match this Sunday against Defensa y Justicia for the tenth round of the 2025 Apertura Tournament of the Professional Football League (LPF), but during Wednesday's training, alarms were raised about Ander Herrera's physical condition.

The Basque midfielder, who performed excellently in the victory against Central Córdoba (SdE) last week, is dealing with muscle overload that forced him to train separately from the group at the Ezeiza Training Center.

Although reports indicate that he does not suffer from any serious injury, Fernando Gago and his coaching staff—with medical advice—have decided to reduce Ander Herrera's workload to prevent his muscle strains from worsening.

Herrera, 35, recently recovered from a hamstring tear and then started four consecutive matches—Aldosivi, Alianza Lima, Rosario Central, and Central Córdoba—in the last two weeks.

His body has felt the strain in recent hours, so Boca Juniors has opted to ease his workload and assess his situation in the coming days to see if he will be part of the squad this weekend or return to action after the international break for the FIFA Date.
