Johnny Cristián Herrera Muñoz (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈʝoni eˈreɾa], born 9 May 1981) is a Chilean professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper and is the captain of Chilean club Universidad de Chile.

Born in Angol, Herrera joined Universidad de Chile youth set-up and was promoted to the first-adult team in 1999. Three years later he became first-choice keeper after being back-up of Sergio Vargas, who left The Lions after 10 years playing there. In 2004, Herrera won his first professional title after beating Cobreloa as visitors in the Torneo Apertura final, where scored the winning goal during the shootout, giving the club their twelfth League title.

In 2006, he moved to Brazilian giants Corinthians. Following an unsuccessful spell at Brazil — where only played nine official games — he returned to Chile and signed for Everton from Vina del Mar in 2007. There, he helped the team to win the 2008 Torneo Apertura. However, in June 2008, Herrera left Everton to sign for Audax Italiano.

In 2011, Herrera returned Universidad de Chile. That year he had a brilliant season, being protagonist in the first treble of the club where they won both League tournaments (Apertura and Clausura) and the Copa Sudamericana under the guidance of the coach Jorge Sampaoli. Noteworthy, Herrera even was chosen as the goalkeeper of the season by the Conmebol. In 2012, he helped Universidad de Chile win the Torneo Apertura, which meant the club’s first ever trichampionship and the last reached at the Sampaoli era.
