Comes off bench in season finale Herrera played the final half hour or so of the 3-1 Decision Day defeat against Los Angeles.
Impact Herrera's first season in Houston was a bit disappointing as he only made six starts in midfield before a leg injury in late August effectively ended his campaign. The 32-year-old will want to improve in 2023 after having had a full preseason with the club, and will aim to add to his tally of one assist so far.

Available Sunday Herrera is available off the bench for Sunday's tilt with Nashville.
Impact Herrera had been listed as questionable and missed his squad's previous five matches due to a leg injury. He's not in the starting XI in this one, but his presence on the bench is a step in the right direction, and he could receive some run on Sunday.

Records assist in loss Herrera took a shot and assisted a goal in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against CF Montreal. He also made a block, two clearances and an interception in the match.
Impact Herrera's lovely long pass to Sebastian Ferreira led to the Mexican international's first assist in MLS, but it wasn't enough to earn a result against Montreal. He's become a fixture in the Dynamo's lineup since settling into his new team, but as a defensive midfielder he doesn't provide the same sort of fantasy value as some of the league's other flashy signings from the transfer window.

Eligible for July debut Herrera will be eligible to make his MLS debut for Houston on July 9 (against FC Dallas, no less), the club announced Thursday.
Impact Herrera may not have set the world alight during his three seasons with Atletico Madrid, but the 32-year-old is a major signing for the Dynamo as he brings the experience of 52 Champions League appearances and 97 caps with the Mexican National Team to go along with the 2021 La Liga title, the 2018 Portuguese Primeira Liga title -- while with Porto -- and the 2015 Concacaf Gold Cup that he's won during his career. He will be expected to start right away in Houston's midfield once he's eligible.

On bench in season finale Herrera was an unused substitute in Sunday's victory against Real Sociedad.
Impact Herrera was given a spell in the XI when Geoffrey Kondogbia was out with a thigh injury in March, but the Mexican international has started just 16 La Liga matches across the last two seasons. The 32-year-old will be leaving the club in the summer after three mediocre campaigns individually since moving from Porto, though Atletico did win an impressive La Liga title in 2020/21. He is now set to move to MLS when his contract with the Houston Dynamo begins in July.
