Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera is adamant that he is good enough for Spain as he continues to chase a first senior cap.

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has revealed ambitions to fight his way into contention for a place in Spain's Euro 2016 squad, claiming that he is more than good enough.

The 26-year-old, who joined the Red Devils for £30m in 2014, is yet to be capped for La Roja as coach Vicente del Bosque continues to overlook him.

With Spain boasting an abundance of midfield talent, Herrera acknowledges that earning a call-up will be tricky, but the ex-Athletic Bilbao man is adamant that he has the quality.

"Of course, I wish to make it into the national team," Herrera told MUTV. "It's the next step for me. When you arrive at Manchester United, you are in the biggest club with the best supporters and maybe the most followed club in the world. Last season, I think I had a good season. The fans were happy with me and the manager as well. Of course, I can play well or I can play badly, but I always give my best and I think I am doing well enough to get into the national squad. It's my next step.

"I know we have, in Spain, maybe the best midfielders in the world right now but I think I have the quality to be in the national team. I will fight for it. I fought last season for that and I am trying to do it again. I think I have the quality to be in it and I am showing that. I think I am ready to help the team [at United], help my team-mates, and I am going to play wherever the manager wants me to play,. So I am doing the right things to get into the national team but, of course, the [international] coach will decide.

"Of course, it's the next dream, the next step for me. I know it's difficult but I will try to do my best to be involved in the European Championship."

Herrera has 15 Under-21 caps under his belt.
