Heriberto Rojas Herrera (born 1942 or 1943) is a former Costa Rican footballer who played his entire career for Deportivo Saprissa, during the 1960s and 1970s.

Herrera made his debut in the Costa Rican Primera División in 1963 and played 17 years for Saprissa.[1] He won 11 national championships with Saprissa and was a key element in the legendary team that won six national championships in a row during the 70s,[2] during which he led the defence.
