The Mexican emerged as a potential transfer target for the Nerazzurri due to his expiring contract status with the Portuguese giants however the huge agent commission fees have led Inter to reconsider. In addition to this, the 28-year-old currently earns €2 million a season at the Dragoes and is understood to want to double his salary.

Herrera, who is the captain at Porto, has also recently attracted interest from fellow Serie A side Roma as well as interest from the Premier League in the past.

In 2236 minutes of action, the former Pachuca man, who has been with the club since 2013, has scored three goals and tallied one assist.
